I am Sunflower, I face towards Sun

 

People made a beautiful garden. There were colorful flowers and green plants. Flowers were incomparable in their beauty. Flowers were blooming in the season. They were happy.

 

            Seasons were not stable. They changed, with the changing of time. When time changed winter approached. Because of cold, flowers set down their heads to warm themselves. Some flowers did not bear cold, so fall down and were mixed in soil.

 

A Flower wondered and said, "Are we only feeling cold or human too?" "People stay in house. They make fire to get warm. They wear warm clothes to tolerate the temperature. So, they do not have problem in winter," She thought

 

She addressed all flowers and said," Dear friends, we should solve the problem of cold or else, we will die like our other friends"

"What to do", they replied.

"I do not find any solutions", another flower shrilled.

 

The leader flower told, "We should bloom making our body straight, so we will be tall and can get warm rays from the sun easily. In such a way we can get rid from the trouble"

 

Some flowers laughed and teased her. They did not take her suggestion seriously.

"We don't like the idea. If we bloom making body straight, we will have backbone pain", Shorter flowers answered.

          The leader flower was sad because her friends did not like her ideas. Cold was rising. But sun too appeared. 'I will head towards sun to get rid of the cold', the leader flower decided. Her friends were confused. Usually, she faces towards sun. This is true nowadays too. Do you know her name, her name is Sunflower.

 

Many years have passed since this incident happened. She too blooms in our time. You can see her facing towards sun.

This poem has enormous charm as well as a sweet and gentle moral! Plus, I can see the logic or why and how Sunflowers grow so tall and as you clearly know, their faces seem to reflect the sun!

Your writing's smooth and considered but you've mixed the tenses and muddled sentence-form in places. Yet all that can be gradually learned by reading well written British novels. I'm sure you can find an approprioate list in a library.

Welcome to my little corner of the Writers Cafe. :)
