Dandelion ~ an Ode: RIP Momma

Many call you names

 

I see your wishes, where all they see

are weeds

 

I know all your uses, replanting

tender seed

 

Dan de Lion ~ forever blow your horn

 

Endless possibilities

blown into space and time

 

Petals soft and yellow

with roots to calm

and Bitter greens

 

Dan de Lion ~ forever blow your horn

 

Forever in resin

“As you wish”

Means, I love you

  1. “I see your wishes, where all they see are weeds”… what!?!?!? this line is fucking LIFE!!!!! So beautiful…makes my heart hurt so good! This is another beautiful, delicate piece.

    Your work is like those beautiful pieces of lace we inherit from our grandmothers…delicate but strong as fuck! It is such a gift to witness you in this work and, my dear friend, you are glorious!
