Sunflower
Poem:
She lingered about a little
& as I watched her spirit
Glide & dance around her
Sunflowers crashed her shoulders
Subtle-breaths covered
By consciousness hid away
The grand joy that her sight had spelled
a soft parade of prayers
half danced & walked away
through the sun drenched seconds
of that day
She half stranger, half friend. . .
didn't want to let it slant that way
"Smile my way"
She lingered about a little
& as I watched her spirit
Glide & dance around her
Sunflowers crashed her shoulders
Subtle-breaths covered
By consciousness hid away
The grand joy that her sight had spelled
a soft parade of prayers
half danced & walked away
through the sun drenched seconds
of that day
She half stranger, half friend. . .
didn't want to let it slant that way
"Smile my way"
