Sunflower Quilt

Sunflower seeds sewn into the ground
Embroidered into rows of beds of brown
Pinned down by the sun's rays
With warm golden threads 
Of brilliant yellows and rosy reds 
sewn by the quilter's hand 
Stitch by stitch thread by thread 
Fabric by fabric she layers 
the fertile lands and flowing rivers 
of blue, green and yellow silken threads.
weaving its way into the sprouting beds.
