O' beautiful sunflower
With your golden crown
Green mammoth leaves
That protect and surround
Nestled among others
Yet you humbly bow
Reminding me of
The church somehow
Praying that the stem
Will wither and die
So the seed
Will fall in Spirit
And nothing of, i
Without the cross
I'll never know
As i cry and weep
How it feels to cast
My crown at our Saviour's feet!

This is beautiful. It makes my "Sunfowers" look very amature. Keep writing. It is wonderful that you are an overcomer, through Christ! Verna Mull

A beautiful, short but inspiring poem! Thanks for sharing it with us all at faithwriters.com.

Thank-you kindly for your critique concerning 'The Real Truth About Harry Potter Books' article I wrote. It's a very sad shame that most Christian families especially in America and England unfortunately are still allowing their children to pervert their delicate minds with this absolute witchcraft trash that JK Rowling is spewing out. May God have mercy on her soul in Jesus Christ's anme - AMEN!!!

I really have never thought of the sunflower this way. I think it is an awesome poem and analogy!

Lovely! Yes, you have summarized the sunflower perfectly. It is a humble flower, though big. It doesn't brag of its size. It lives only to shade smaller plants and to produce wonderful seeds for anyone to enjoy, who takes the time to reap the crop...Love your comparison...God bless you. Keep on keeping on, despite what some may call a set-back or handicap -- your stroke....You are not letting it stop you from sharing your talent...Thanks for your comment on Summer Breezes...Helen
