2025/Barrett-

Tall and skinny I stand by the door

Ready to leave time I want more.

I roll out my bag look out the window and sigh

It always was difficult to say goodbye

I go to my friends and bid them adieu

I then reach down to tie my shoe

That's when I see a shimmering dandelion

Beautiful and versatile and grows where they stop flyin’

I think to myself maybe a can be like a dandelion too

I thought about it and thoughts no longer blue

I get up and smile ready for new endeavors

For wherever I go and whatever I do we’ll always be together
