Edmund, I like dandelion kingdom and caterpillar world. They, with the simplicity in the poem, make me think of Wiiliam Blake. -Glen
A very poignant poem “Oh how we smiled as a child The earth was one big bauble Each moment lit eternal In this dandelion kingdom“ Loved this poem..
The imagination of a child is a magical world and a cracker of a place to be. Its creation of tales and wonderous places has no end, only growth. I love this tale.
I'm feeling nostalgic after reading this poem. A child's world is the best to live in. We lose so much as we grow. So much disillusionment besets our paths. A lovely write that resurrects happy memories.
What a whirling rush this life is. We chase dreams as if to round one more corner or clear one more hill we will somehow be satisfied. We go abroad to escape familiarity but bring along that worn luggage in ourselves. Why climb mountains when the valley is so much more abundant?
