Sun Shower

Do the sun and the sunflower engage in a love affair?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How does the sunflower feel at night?

 At dusk, closing her petals as if embracing the light

  She is engaging the day

Mourning and dreaming until they

 Are reunited at the break of dawn

  This cycle forever goes on

Until their time has passed

 Romancing each other every day as long as it lasts

  Never-ending; the sun enhances her beauty

This is his duty

 Showering her with rain and sweet morning dew

  It’s the least he can do to satisfy his love from above

She reaches high with her face open toward his

 Ready to receive his sun kiss

  As she feels each drip, she begins to reverberate

Every leaf tremble and shake

 Semi sonic sunrays fill her up with a haze

  Sending pulses, firing her roots ablaze

Arching up to the surface, creating new causeways

 Exploding water throughout her fibers until

  Nature takes over the process of conversion into chlorophyll

She smiles up at her sun in satisfaction

 And he beams back at her, gauging her reaction

  Wishing they could touch in a physical way

Reveling in this generous day

 Knowing when night comes, they will have a separation

  So she mentally starts her preparation

For night, keeping her sun always in her sight

 She bids adieu to her love as he fades from her with the twilight

  When this day is at last done

They both have won

 She and the Sun
