Sunflowers

The masses worship the sun
Sunflowers dancing to the lords command
Soldiers have made there flower beds
Where they all end up lying in peace
Quite quite dead

Timothy Hicks Date: 4/2/2016 6:03:00 PM Naturally I was drawn to the poem titled, "Sunflowers" ... lol. Interesting comparison between those that died in battle, as the sunflowers always follow the sun no matter what ... so too, do soldiers always follow the command of their superiors. It takes a person with a real sense of humanity to disobey an unjust order from a higher-up. Sometimes, it's best not to be a sunflower ... very reflective, Aurore. I appreciate its message.
