Fairies in the Back Yard

When I went into the garden earlier it looked like it was swarming with snowy flies, or fairies or something equally as unusual. It wasn’t. The air was filled with dandelion seeds which, as well as being rather lovely, reminded me of my poem about fairies.

Um, so now you know.

ADDED 19:02. Actually, I’ve discovered that they were seeds which had been blown off catkins, not dandelions as first thought.
