Beata Agustin Poet Imagism

Notes About The Poem

Sunflower Radiance

Beaming with radiant triumphant bliss
cheerful flower* greets delightfully
wafting birthday wishes of good health
blended with jasmine scent
accentuated by scarlet velvet ribbon
of blessed journey prayers
gripped by the Lord’s grace and mercy…

Now swaying midst dripping petals, once fresh
plastic sunflower sturdily stands 
along my birthday bouquet
displayed upon my vase
reminding me life’s worth:
though short, its God-propped impact
to others steadfastly lingers.
