Some see weeds, I see wishes... A Lighthouse Poetry Entry (Form: Free Verse)
Dandelions

I was taught that God is the creator,
the faithful gardener who tends his plantings
with care and love.
And yet, each day I see, malignant growth
across our neighborhoods, country, world,
from the seeds of bitter fruit.
I look to my own garden,
ablaze in color in the sunshine.
Here and there, I see a bright yellow dandelion
peeking at me, existing without harm.
Soon they open and wander the winds.
God, through nature, has shown us a way.
Let our caring spread on the winds of love.
Where others see weeds...
I see wishes.
