Also in English this post is a lovely read and your haiku’s are little gems just like the dandelion ✨💛 I love this wishing flower, it’s one of my favorite flowers and can’t understand that people call it a weed. This little flower is magic ✨

I love the haiku and the etymology of dandelion in different languages. So interesting how names evolve!

I’ve always known Dandelions as “tell the times”, my children still enjoy picking them and blowing on them to release the delicate seeds 🩵

[Hilda Scheenstra]

Ah, I didn't know that! Curious if you are blowing them yourself... It's magic isn't it?

[Georg Cook]

So magical, they look like little fairies 🩵
