Wish!


They say if we make a wish our dreams will come true. So we toss pennies into a fountain. Scan the night sky for shooting stars. Close our eyes and attempt to extinguish all the candles on our birthday cake with one breath. Give it all we’ve got when playing tug-o-war with the Thanksgiving turkey remnants. And hope we run into a genie and his magic lamp … he grants THREE wishes, after all.

But ‘tis the season of dandelions. Not so welcomed are their yellow flower heads, but isn’t it fun to propel those fluffy puffs? Go ahead … try to walk by one without plucking it and scattering its seeds to the wind.

What did you wish for?

I wished for no more dandelions. The damn stuff blew right back in my eyes!!!
