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.

~By Peyton R.

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
