Sunflower Dance

[FromtheBackofaHorse]

Garden of Sunflowers
A garden of Sunflowers beckoned to me -
Come join us, my lady, and joyous you'll be!

We're large ones and small ones, some dainty and fair,
And even some delicate to wear in your hair.

We follow the sun, swaying slowly without a care,
We have a new dance that with you we will share.

Gently hold onto our leaves, allow us to lead the way,
To our Sunflower two-step, dancing throughout the day.

I couldn't resist them, so dandy a sight!
So off I did go in my Sunflower flight.

What a glorious time, right up til twilight,
And then I had to bid my Sunflowers good-night.

So happy were we, a long day filled with fun,
Upon leaving I kissed them, each and every one.

So tender the moment, as I turned to leave.
With eyes brimmed with tears, could I truly believe?

OH! It was so true!! I then knew it to be!!!
I had to smile, 'cause they were all winking at me!!!!

Nice shot, Deb, and they are obviously dancing with the sun as the poem says and your shot shows. The selective coloring really brings them out.

Thanks to everyone for looking. I pass this patch of sunflowers every morning on my way to work and the sun is just coming up. They call to me each day to come play hooky.
