The Dandelion

[Jeremiahcp]

Hi Everyone! This is the first poem I have posted, and I would love to get some feedback. 


To the Narcissus I don’t compare,

But dare I say, there still is beauty in my golden shades.

I’m here for just a few days,

Only to wither away, leaving some kindred in my short wake.

But you come at me with a battalion of spades,

What have I done to earn your rage?

But dare I say, there still is beauty in my golden shades.

I’m here for just a few days, 

Only to wither away, leaving some kindred in my short wake.

But you come at me with your spade and rage,

What have I done to earn your hate?

But still you consider me a bane,

What have I done to earn your hate?

This is great material to work a poem around, just a few things I saw.

In your first line you could drop the. With the capitalization it reads as a proper name, so there is no need for the. For example: You won't say the Paul. 
In the 2nd line, the phrase but dare I say  sounds a bit archaic.
I would shorten the beginning a bit and combine some of the lines. 

Like this:

To Narcissus I don't compare
as my golden shade quickly fades
and I wither away

On the 4th line, I think there is great opportunity to turn the kindred into a strong image. 
I would also be careful with the last line. It could work just the way it is, but leaving on a open question like that, gives the reader the opportunity to justify a dislike of dandelions.
