She spreads her billowy petticoat
Just wishing for some fun
As her dainty white tufts
Reach for the midday sun
Soft and serene
Her cottony clusters finally do fly
Each ruffle floating along
Towards the infinite wide open sky
Her lacy remnants twirl
On the delicate breezy air
Her dizzying pirouettes
Cause the bees to stop and stare
What is it about her
That makes the world stand still
A graceful little weed
Who can give us such a thrill
