Sunflowers
Sunflower
Choppily, the wind blows in the crowded field.
It slides in between the petals of the sunflower
They sway gracefully
As if the sunflower was dancing
The wind has passed and it’s time for the epoch
The sound of pitter patter on the petals
As the drop glissades onto my hand
Some of the seeds tumble off
To spread remotely elsewhere.
The epoch leaves which brings
Velutinous cold and
A wave of aversion
To the sunflowers.
The frigid brings creamy snow
And snow brings bloodless sunflowers.
The sunflowers are soldiers
They endeavor with all their might
But it’s too impenetrable
Spring Undulation
The soil has matured fertile
The sunflowers are stouthearted
A small fix in the field
Holds an immature seed
This seed has been in many residences
As you can see
The seed will replicate someone just like me
The immature seed is forsaken
But not for long
The wind brings more brothers and sisters
Right along to me
As the days pass on
Budding inch by inch
The seeds sprout
And form many beautiful
Sunflowers.

Sunflower
This poem was inspired by my study of sustainability and plants. It is intended to get readers to think about the ways plants and flowers spread and how the environment can affect them. Hopefully, this will make people engage in more environmental activities.
