be-u-ti-ful dandys

When someone says they don't appreciate your poetry, think of the poems as be-u-ti-ful dandys that are flowers of beauty for a little 5-year old on a walk with her Papaw.


Poem Artwork

My poems idled like bright yellow
dandys among velvet bluegrass,
spoiling conformed scapes,
wilting under pesti-comments,
dedicated to purifying the field.

Then I remember the bonding walks
with my granddaughter, her squeals
of delight, picking those be-u-ti-ful
yellow flowers, ignoring the green.

I wrote another just for her.

There is nothing... absolutely NOTHING that can best a walk with a child... of any age. This is mast4erful confession. I shed a tearful tribute to Paw-paws, G'das and each of us.

this reminded me of a 2-yr old I taught years ago...he called them 'dandyflowers' (:

You are a special Papaw, Rusty. This poem is very touching and meaningful. I can just hear her little girl's voice say be-u-ti-ful and it gives me the good, grammy chills.
So sweet.
Love,
CJ
