this is drying dandelion. however, when my dad first hung herbs to dry, i wrote the following, which could explain the “intriguing title” (smile). thank you.
our father, the self-
taught botanist, is
stretching a thin
cord from the piano
to the back door
tying tiny bouquets
of the traveler’s
mugwort every six
inches down the line
to dry. each bouquet
of ten delicate
sprigs carries more
than just traveler’s
luck, but his signature
love – the patient fruit
