What time is it?

By Silver Blue

Ask the dandelion clock. What’s a dandelion clock?

A children’s amusement in which the number of puffs needed to blow the filamentous achenes from a dandelion is supposed to tell the time.  ( http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dandelion_clock )

Silver Blue, who reminds you that when you ask the time of a dandelion clock, you must not be afraid of the answer.  (paraphrased from Madeline L’Engle, A Swiftly Tilting Planet)
