Moggy's Mutterings - 35. Gold

a duo of happier words

1.

Dandelions.
Weeds.
Growing everywhere.
Even in the pavement cracks.
Ascending towards the sky.
Green and yellow.
Bright spots in desolate cities.
Seas of gold in open spaces.
Hardy little things.
Like plant phoenixes.
Rising above things,
to shine with their own brilliance.

2.
Sunshine, flowing like liquid gold,
spills through windows of a life.
Friends, like dust motes, dance on shafts of light.
Families are all touched by the light of the same sun,
knitting us through time.
Lives touched by gold.

I loved these two, moggy! The first is one I relate to well... what nature gives us... well crafted, and I love the message, which to me is appreciate the life you see around you :) 

The second tells me when it comes to life giving sun, we all share in its worship... beautiful... thanks for these....

Awesome metaphors, and even better paired together as you have them.  I am particularly taken by Dandelions. Beautifully observed.
