A Secondhand Blossom
When picturing a wildflower
I see the blossom
not the seeds.
Picture a dandelion,
a pretty yellow wildflower
not named after its
annoying seeds.
Picture a silverpuff,
a pretty yellow wildflower
with toothed rays
radiating star-like points
only to be named after its
beautiful silver globe seeds —
a secondhand blossom.
