Sunflower

Sunny, funny, sweet and precious one,
Utter happiness you bring to me.
Never far from you, I ever want to be
Flourishing with you as you dance beneath the sun,
Lingering within the glow which is your love!
On your dark and dulcet eyes I gaze and gaze,
Wishing that your sunshine could forever stay.
Even should there come the gloomiest of days,
Radiate your loving warmth as with delight you sway.
