'Sun fell into my lap. ...' (Image © 2012, Karla Dorman)

Sun fell into my lap. Tried to pick it up and send it back where it belongs. Up there. But it didn't want to return. It wanted to stay here, with me, because I looked so sad. So I put the sun on a fuzzy stalk, where it is content to bloom: it smiles sweetly from yellowed fields and peeks around corners, a glimpse of Heaven on earth. My happiness: watching it wave through the window. THAT'S how sunflowers were born.

Years ago I found myself driving along a country road where sunflowers were blooming in fields as far as the eye could see. It was magical, just as with your poem. Wonderful write!

Thanks, I never knew. I have noticed lately that sunflowers pop up is almost every vacant lot. I love sunflower seeds so much and wild sunflowers seem to propagate so easily here in Texas, that I think it must be a paradise for birds that eat those seeds. Sunflowers sure brighten up the green of vacant lots as well.
