Poof Poem by shimon weinroth

If you have never poofed a dandelion
Rubbed petals of roses
Sniffed peppermint leaves
Stepped in virgin snow

Nor heard the sigh of a dog
The hooting of an owl
The moaning of a cat
Cawing of a raven

Or nursed an ice cream cone
Swallowed jell-o
Eaten sushi and venison

Shouted just to hear the echo
Then you have never lived

Still young of heart
Bangeeing from a bridge
Sky diving, skiing
Or even mundane mountain climbing
Can be thrilling

Live it up
Poof a dandelion
