but no masterpiece of man
compares to His least.

First five syllables
seven syllables follow
five left to end it
Dandelion don't tell no lies
Dandelion will make you wise
Tell me if she laughs or cries
Blow away dandelion


I'm afraid there's no denying
I'm just a dandelion
a fate I don't deserve.

Who tallies results?
The One who tracks, sallies, skulks
in the cracks and caulks.

(Two full rhymes, a half rhyme, one visual rhyme. What's my score?)

Sullen lost, stalking, crossing,
