Karla,
very original and well written. I grew the flowers one year. They grew taller than me and they were beautiful to see. Hugs:)

I love that the yellow warms the tummy-- good line. If you could melt it down a little bit, it would make a sensational haiku. If you can't fit it all in there, maybe a quatrain (a four-liner) or maybe a tanka (5-7-5-7-7, unrhymed). Take care. --Charlie

I love the first line "the sun is a seed..." This sent my imagination soaring, thinking of the many worlds it may make blossom with the warmth of its inner core. Good effort, Karla.
