wisps of dandelion
soaring the fields
on summer winds
sailing over seas and
never-ending skies
embers from a flame
rising past the stars
into worlds beyond
the universe and
fathoms of the mind
steadfast roots
planted deep within
firmness of earth
timeless, enchanted
forest of memories
mountain strength
rising earth to sky
faithful, unwavering
presence enduring the
toughest of storms
