Self Portrait

DSCN1353.JPG

A fighter I am

wanting to be a smile;

yet I wish not to root out

the wild growth of weedy misery.

They are my prized blowballs*

giving me healing touches

as I try to live and grow with them.

I shall smile.

Oneday.

 

*Dandelions, a medicinal herb and a food crop.
