Field of Prayer

The Sunflower has the meaning of "Loyalty" it is also the "Happiest" flower, one never knows what is behind a face. I dedicate this poem to all the homeless animals.


Poem Artwork


Field of Prayer

Standing in the breeze reaching out,
Faces to sun for heat,
Lost in the field among the sprouts,
Yearning seeds fall to feet.

Cool evening shadows cast sorrow,
Yellow heads bow and fold,
Praying that maybe tomorrow,
They will be picked to hold.

I love the references to how the flowers are lonely, in a way, yearning for someone to "love," should they be picked. A beautiful analogy for our own lives, at times.

Beautiful work, Christine.

Christine,what a nice metaphoric poem. In fact we are all waiting for the sun to ripen us. For every one comes his turn, this is why sunflowers turn with the sun. Emile

What a beautiful write to those homeless animals Christine. We adopted one and she thinks she is a child probably because we treat her like one, thank you for sharing.
