The Sunflower
Sometimes life isn't very bright, but the sun knows when the time is right
In springtime something grows in the quiet of the night
Nurtured below ground, soon it will be in your sight
The warmth of the year provides it to shine bright
It is for all living things to watch and enjoy
The bees and butterflies help us to understand the story
Their work is of great importance to show not all is melancholy
It is a story of life and nature, and a beautiful endless journey
The sunflower sways in the gentle breeze in a brilliant dance
It has grown from a seed, and a little luck and chance
The days are long, but soon autumn will advance
Dormant in winter cold, but it shall return in a summer glance
