SUNFLOWER

Sunflower shines with golden glow 
While the wind makes a gusty blow 
Though, the scorch of the summer sun 
Against its petals is not fun
 
But, its strength is long and lasting 
It's like a heart that's everlasting
Against the intense of the heat 
It will not yield its heartbeat 

So beautiful, yet so tough 
Even if the heat is rough 
And its crown of golden hues 
To craving sights brings the blues

Admire a flower poetry contest

An elegant description of the sunflower. You managed to make a story of the life of the sunflower in one paragraph. Remarkable. Best regards David in NZ
