The First Dandelion.
Simple and fresh and fair from winter's close
emerging,
As if no artifice of fashion, business, politics,
had ever been,
Forth from its sunny nook of shelter'd grass—
innocent, golden, calm as the dawn,
The spring's first dandelion shows its trustful
face.
WALT WHITMAN.
Unless the stupid lawn care company's gone nuts with the chemicals. Grrrrrrr!
