they call you a weed
frown when you show up to their
perfect gardens
uninvited
don’t let their limited definition of beautiful
color your flowers less desirable than the rose
you are the beautiful survivor
evolved to take no shit
to keep spreading your bright yellow smiles
everywhere
make a wish
dandelion girl
let it go
fluffy seeds floating in the air
you are invincible
to droughts
and floods
and poisons alike
immortal dreamer
wishgranter
you are hope
