Count your historic period by friends, not by years.
The City
(David Ignatow)
If flowers want to abound
correct out of concrete sidewalk cracks
I'm going to bend downwardly and scent them.
Planting Flowers
Have some dirt, add some seeds,
Pour on water, pull the weeds,
Rest a minute, work for hours,
Then only wait to scent the flowers.

Dandelions 
Two Dandelion Poems
A dandelion doesn't roar
Which is a lucky matter
With all the millions that at that place are
That would exist frightening.
When I went out to play today
I found dandelions yellowish and gay
Then when I came in this evening
The dandelions had turned to white.
Ode to a Dandelion
(Rea Williams)
Though others may curse you lot for a weed,
To destroy they deem their duty,
For me you are a lovely flower
And I revel in your beauty.
You're first to show your brilliant color
After winter'southward bitter cold.
Y'all're truly springtime's harbinger
With your delicate mounds of gilded.
Your flowers are food for a weary soul,
Your leaves a zesty tonic--
Such succulent flavor they contain
It makes united states of america experience bionic.
I know your color shortly volition fade
Only your seeds are avian nutrient--
So, like the wind and thus the blossom,
It'south sick that blows no adept.
In God's great plan for nature
Everything does accept information technology's identify
And I, for one, am e'er glad
To run across your smiling face.
Dandelions
(Andrew Downing)
Bright coinage of the generous sunday,
Downwards-flung, and scattered, one past ane--
They star with gilt the greenish plateau,
And light the landscape with their glow!
In Defence force of the Dandelion
(Samuel Pickering, Jr.)
Jump has arrived and so take the dandelions. Here by the porch, there past the drive, everywhere. For years I struggled to get rid of them. I summer I wore out a pair of leather gloves digging them up. Another summertime our canis familiaris Fred most died from drinking the weed killer I mixed in the garage.
I'g older now and accept learned better. I just sit on the porch and leave the dandelions solitary. In fact, we accept grown fond of one some other.
I accept decided that the real American Beauty isn't the rose simply the dandelion. The common dandelion is not a native American. Like most of our ancestors, information technology didn't travel get-go form, and there is no record of its inflow on our shores. All we know is that it seems to have come from Europe, and similar those "huddled masses" who sought a ameliorate life in a newer world, the dandelion put down roots and thrived.
Grateful for the opportunity to settle, it was content to make wayside and wasteland bloom. Dissimilar the cultivated rose, the dandelion is, in its stem of stems, a Populist. It generally prefers difficult homesteading on barren basis to pampered living in potting soil. The dandelion smiles simply every bit brightly amid lawn tenement clutter as it does beneath the boxwood border of an English garden. In dissimilarity to the formal rose, which makes a sticking point of ceremony and tin can be prickly with those who do non testify proper deference, the dandelion is friendly. It even enjoys the company of children every bit they weave information technology into garlands.
The dandelion lives a clean and simple life. Information technology opens and blooms at sunrise and, closing up tightly, goes to bed at sunset. It keeps healthy and respectable hours because it is a family flower. One to two hundred florets compose its yellow flower. Every bit the florets mature and are finally pollinated, the dandelion's stem lengthens. Sacrificing its position in the world, the dandelion now lives for its children, closing one last time until the florets have grown into seeds and are ready to go out abode. And then the greyness world expands and then the seeds can catch a breeze and get-go out well in life.
No other flower embodies the American spirit as well as the dandelion. When the going gets tough, pansies and petunias wilt. Neither the strong winds nor heavy rains can break the dandelion. When the petals of the dogwood blossoms are scattered and the peony is beaten to the ground, the dandelion even so holds its head up bravely.
Dissimilar the southern Magnolia or sagebrush, the dandelion is non tied to a particular region of the country. It is truly a National bloom. Moreover, it is a bloom for all months and all climates; from January to December, the dandelion blossoms somewhere. It may be constitute in Arizona under the shadow of the saguaro cactus, in Florida's orange groves or on a ledge in Colorado's mountains.
Such a flower is a bright sign of hope, and when winter comes and days and nights seem black, call back that somewhere in America, the dandelion is blooming.

from Goldenrod
(Blondie)
As certain equally annihilation
As sure as I can exist
That 99 percent, pure as Ivory
I caught the scent, followed the smell of it
Couldn't Ignore
Hey, why did yous pick on me?
What's that pretty blossom I encounter?
Alpine and wild information technology waves at me
Mother says it's just a weed
Golden Rod, Golden Rod
Growing Wild, not in the city
Gave me an allergy
And my reaction'due south, what's gonna happen?
It gets no aid from me
Some other blonde, not from the city
Gave me an allergy
And you can run across me drinking the poison
Taking it happily.

Wildflowers 
Quotes
- For myself I hold no preferences among flowers, and then long as they are wild, free, spontaneous. Bricks to all greenhouses! Blackness thumb and cutworm to the potted plant! (Edward Abbey)
- Weeds are flowers likewise, once you get to know them.
A Special Bouquet
A rose tin say 'I love yous.'
Orchids can enthrall,
Just a weed boutonniere in a stubby fist,
Oh my, that says it all!
The Wildflower's Vocal
(William Blake)
As I wander'd the forest,
The green leaves among,
I heard a wild flower
Singing a vocal.
I slept in the Earth
In the silent nighttime,
I murmur'd my fears
And I felt delight.
In the forenoon I went
As rosy as morning time,
To seek for new joy;
But O! met with scorn.
from Auguries of Innocence
(William Blake)
To run across a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Sky in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an 60 minutes.
