Dandelion

Introduction

The 3 phases of a dandelion represent the sun, moon and stars. The yellow flower represents the sun, the white puff ball represents the moon and the dispersing seeds represent the stars. The name dandelion comes from French dent-de-lion, meaning "lion's tooth" because of the pointy shape of its leaves.

I thought that the dandelion's transitions deserved a poem. My daughter Juliet has a lovely cat called Dandelion.
