here comes the sun

Normally when I spy a dandelion, my first thought is "Oh, no, another weed."
But when I take time to get up close and inspect its intricacies, I am always blown away by the layers of beauty.
The button of the pistol buried in the core, the slender petals, and the outrageously curly stigmas remind me of a sunrise. And to think this all turns into a wispy seed head. Creation is amazing!
