  She smiled shyly up at the sunlight
  Unleashing her unbridled passion
  Nodding naively at Daystar bright
  Flaming in fascinated fashion
  Languishing in lustrous love's lost plight
  Overwhelmed by Sol's pure compassion
  Withering without His warming sight
  Enjoying endless satisfaction
  Romancing with welkin's regal knight

An enjoyable acrostic. The sunflower is a lovely during the day.
