I wish to be a hope


Born as a free dandelion seed
Wandering the world, blowing in the wind
On a handful of dirt, finally landed

Born small, but I wish to grow large.
Born seed, but huge tree, I wish to be grown into
I wish to be a shelter for little creatures

Even if it means shivering in the rain
Root shaken in the storm
My whole body freezing in the cold

More than little creatures’ shelter
I’d like to be remembered as a hope
Born small, but I wish to be a big hope.
