Although I Pick Flower Petals
(inspired by Izumi Shikibu’s “Although the
Wind…”)
Although I pick flower petals
To blow them away in slow motion,
They move too fast-
Like the rest of the world.

Flowers are blossoming
Colors spread everywhere
It is spring time here

Dandelion in a Field
I am a golden dandelion
I hear the soft whisper of the wind
I see the clear blue sky above me
I want to be picked and admired
I see my family of flowers around me
I want to be given to a child
I am a golden dandelion
~Ava Soong
I want to be a gift for someone’s love
I am a golden dandelion
I feel common in this sea of gold
I dream to be something special
I try to bring happiness to those that
gaze at me
I hope to be loved and cherished
I am a golden dandelion
