Dandelion Dancer

A dandelion is a plant that has mastered every survival skill except for conforming to neat rows. They are frail; but beautiful. Lonely; yet ubiquitous.

They are so delicate; yet dandelions are a symbol of hope.

Dancers are strong, balanced, flexible and, like the dandelions, beautiful. Graceful and elegant, poised. They use their bodies to tell stories and convey every emotion.

I like to imagine a combination of these qualities in my writing.

I want my poems to be delicate but their words to ring strong.

I want my stories to be balanced and have a graceful air about them.

I want my writing to convey emotions, to be lonely and everywhere at once.

I want to be a Dandeliondancer.
