Buried in the ground
Feeling the water touch me
My roots are growing,
I’m feeling the soil
Pushing against gravity
Now feeling the sun upon me
Growing taller every day
Can’t wait to see my petals
I’m 10 feet tall
And I’m blooming with petals
that are orange and yellow.
I see your smile
proud of yourself,
For how beautiful I’ve become.
I’m a wonderful sunflower.
