The daily grind

Summary: For the Flash Poetry challenge this week




Whispers of
dandelion clocks drift
earthward while

at my door
the wind breathes its message:
‘Enjoy life!’

Time holds sway
as the rollercoaster
dips and swerves

till one day
the effervescent trail
dissolves and

ironing
my white shirt for work, I
submit to

reality.
