I don’t talk about it much, but I have been writing some poetry. I took a class this summer, and enjoyed it thoroughly, as I have never learned much about it. So tonight, I have decided to share… This is one of my favorites so far…
Sunflowers Shimmer
Sunflowers shimmer
As dew drops dance
On petals translucent
Stalks green as garnet
Sway gently in warm wispy breezes
Stretching for silos casting serene shade
Over seas of canary colored petals
Following namesake across sky
In last days
Head drops heavily
Like brass bells
Swollen with abundance
With crunchy treats nutrient full
Treat for tummies
Little and old
Work to crack out little nibbles
Birds fling from feeders and nests
Planting mini crops for following year
