Sunflower - study 1

Planted only for your beauty,
for the imperceptible way you follow the sun,
and keep yourself trained on life and its source,
unafraid to become the warm rays,
statuesque and unabashed by the murmurings below
that you have taken too great a risk
in refusing to be anything but yourself.

On the opening of the sunflowers on my island this August.
