Helianthus Annuus Poem by David Darbyshire

Helianthus Annuus

Rating: 5.0


Blackbirds gather, to take stock
and graze their wonderful crop of
sunflowers swaying in the wind.
With dark eye'd centers, and yellow flaps
used like solar pannels,
spreading outwards to catch all sunshine,
using this energy to grow as high as the sky.
These are the flowers of the sun,
sea's of bright gold as far as you can see,
all looking up as happy as can be.
