A sunflower glowing in all its beauty
Eyes dark as the seeds in its bloom
It stands with no sense for duty
Strong and glistening from the monsoon
A delight for all in her company
Her sweet nature feeding the bee
Each having their turn, one among many
Such great hospitality, a delight to see
A mystery hidden between her patterns
Seed and petal in intricate display
Yellow warm as from a lantern
She dances wildly in the wind today
The wind picks up like a torrent
Threatening all to dismay
Rooted strong her petals shudder
She waits patiently through out the day
The sun sets reflecting her glory
A twin image magnificent to see
Drooping down she falls quite silent
Into sleep she’ll soon be set free
Through the dark hours she slumbers
Recovering from the mighty storm
Free to dream under starlit showers
She awakes to begin it all a morn
