Ode To a Sunflower

Nothing can compare to walking Through a meadow of smiling sunflowers Their warm beauty falls upon my face As I wander silently alone among such a Rich company of friends Their radiant colours of shining yellow And brown have passed down through Endless eons of past summers Their thirst quenched by the early dew Now graced by the warm morning sun As they try and touch the sky What can compare to your iridescence Summer cannot compete with your allure Even rainbows in the sky lose their lustre Or bouquets of butterflies floating in the summer sun The whole realm of nature bows down in homage To your beauty but alas your life on Earth Is far too short all too soon you are gone
