I have always thought, how does that simple seemingly lightweight stalk hold up that giant head of the sunflower. Great work describing the sunflower. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara

Lovely image, Kim. Reminds me of sunflower seeds I once threw in an unused section of garden. They were huge. Must do that again. Blessings.

"Solo sunflower" I absolutely love this word pairing and the emotions this one evokes within such few words.. So deep and heartfelt.. The flow is impeccable and the alliteration is so creative!!
