Dandelions certainly erupt suddenly on our lawns, don't they?

I'm a fan of that much-maligned flower, so cheerfully-colored.

Maybe it's just the kid in me remembering seeing if my friends 'liked butter, on their chins, popping off yellow heads with a flick of my thumb, and blowing the delicate white parachute seeds.

When I was little, "flower" meant "dandelion." They are, I suppose, the poor relations of showier flowers. But you know what they say about poor people.
