Untitled

I've been so busy lately I haven' written much. Which is no excuse for the mangled little thing I came up with today. (I recommend reading Robert Burns' classic instead of the following)


My love is like a dandelion
it grows most anywhere
it scatters fluffy, puffy seeds
that dance upon the air

those fluffy, puffy seeds reach far
those cotton seeds reach wide
those cotton seeds have grown like weeds
upon my heart's hillside

don't try to pull them out my dear
that taproot grows down deep
those bitter leaves have stretched out wide
to catch the tears you weep

my love is common place my dear
your love is just like mine
our love shall last a good long bit
and grow a long long time.
