Sunflower Gaze

The harvest moon shines with its almost orange glow In the gardens sun flowers grow The clouds barely visible in moonlight move slow The parching heat of the sun is replaced by cool airflow The sunflower move its head down and goes to sleep Is it counting sheep? Or is it dreaming on being on ocean ship Is it dreaming that it had legs and go on a trip Next dawn Sunflower awakes as if with a yawn Sun has parched everything it shined upon But fiery looking crown of sunflower caries on Sunflowers head looks up and upon sun gazes The partnership of sunflower and sun amazes The crown of leaves surround the disk like many auras Towards the sun sunflower builds spiritual bridges Sunflower is tall It towers above other flowers surpassing them all Its center if it was an eye it could see towards horizon piercing its very soul It could see limit of destiny brake and to abyss fall to free the soul
