Perly Sunflower

A special flower in my garden of life

 

Perly Sunflower

Everyone likes flowers, I mean why not?,

they're pretty to look at, and smell really good,

they come in all different colors, sizes, and shapes,

I may be wrong, but I think they're even on grapes

Red, White, Blue, Yellow and Pink,

big leaves, small leaves, thorns, pistils and stamens,

bees really love them, Bumble's, sweats and honey,

the magnificent butterfly, and sometimes a bunny

they're good to chew on and they smell fantastic,

at least the bunnies and beetles think so,

It's really hard to pick out a really special flower,

you can run it through your mind for over an hour

but there is one special one, that I've become quite fond of,

It's yellow and brown and reaches out to the sun,

basking in the brilliance of the morning sunlight,

she really stands out, she's such a beautiful sight

I had not paid very much attention to her previously,

I took me a while to really notice, mixed in like that,

then she grabbed my leg one day as I walked by,

I looked at her more closely, she caught my eye

we had a longer conversation that particular day,

we chatted about this and that and everything in between,

there was something special about this one with leaves so curly,

and I decided to name her my Sunflower Perly

we've become much closer over the last few days,

not sure why exactly, just seems to be a connection,

I make sure I stop by everyday to see how she feels,

and she smiles up at me my Perly so real

lol When I read this I thought of Desert Dreamer and how she would like it and see she beat me here.

Sunflowers are my favorite, Black Eyed Susan's whatever you call them I love them.
This is a magical write... humans speaking to flowers (nature) this is how it should be I feel.

Enjoyed this,

Beautiful! Magical! This poem starts out speaking lightly on the subject of flowers and then dives deep into another realm where the flower is a woman, or the woman is a flower, or maybe the flower is just a flower and you saw it's essense this one day as more than just a flower. This is a wonderful poem!
