Analysis of DANDELION IN THE SKY



Oh little dandelion
in the sky,
whose wish are you carrying
and how high can u fly?

Do you miss
the place you are from,
or do you regret
the thing you have become?

You are something special
so don't you worry,
and always remember
that those are hopes that you carry.

Forget everything and listen
to the wind that whispers,
the secrets of life
and the wishes of the wishers.
