Sunflowers (for "Sunny" the sunandthesea)
Driving home from work today
I saw a sight not usually seen until August
Waves upon waves of sunflowers all down the highway
Greeting me as I drove past.
Turning their faces to catch the warming rays
Nodding and sighing as if in agreement
Telling me their secrets
"Tell "Sunny" "hi" for us!"
And so this gift of sunflowers
With their warm and cheerful radiance
Is for you.
I saw a sight not usually seen until August
Waves upon waves of sunflowers all down the highway
Greeting me as I drove past.
Turning their faces to catch the warming rays
Nodding and sighing as if in agreement
Telling me their secrets
"Tell "Sunny" "hi" for us!"
And so this gift of sunflowers
With their warm and cheerful radiance
Is for you.

How well do sunflowers grow for you? I know that that they aren't found naturally anywhere on the British Isles. They grow abundantly wild here, in pastures, fields and along roadsides. They are so bright and cheerful! :)
