Sunflowers
Good Morning, Sunflowers!
You face the sun in worship
with petals, a spiral pattern
of rich lemony, bountiful fun.
Nature focuses upon your yellow-
bright flower heads, bees
buzz, butterflies flit,
finches pinch at your seeds.
Your bouquet flourishes in a
vase upon table. This joyful
ambiance is made radiant
by your glorious presence.
God nods approval, casts
his blessings. Each corner
bursts into sunshine delight,
jovial blossoms of sun!

Hi Marlene. I enjoyed reading your lovely poem. I once passed a field of rows & rows of tall sunflowers. I was inspired to write a poem as well. Nicely written piece here! Good wishes...Chris~
