Friendly Giant

The way ahead is open

The way ahead is clear

The sun shines over

The sky is vast and near

I reach upward seeking

The warmth of natural heat

I follow the path of the 

golden ball as it retreats

Each day I show my appreciation 

To the star of glowing heat

The bees buzz and fall sleepy

I let them stay for free

I see the birds and the people

Looking up at me.

Giant is what they all say as they cast their eyes on me

I stay a while for their admiration

And then I go to sleep

I seed my life for others to see similar to me

A giant sunflower gives some pleasure to humans, birds and bees.
