That such forgotten things cast on the wind can be everywhere and create such beauty--and perform many healing roles--is a miracle. Thanks for this poem. I like it very much!

This is wonderful! I love 'seed of whim and chance'. For me it brings a vision of all wild flowers.

I love Queen Anne's lace. I've never understood why some unknown person or persons got to decree some things weeds and some things "flowers." Lovely poem.

Wow! I love this, love it. Seeds of whim and chance - so much life in there! Love it!

The verification letters are horrible - I'm still trying to decipher and post a comment...

I don't know Queen Anne's Lace at all. But your imagery of it is just stunning.

Nicely done. I haven't posted much poetry lately, but last August I posted a poem about Queen Anne's Lace (along with a photo of a field covered with the flowers)
