A flower in my house has taken a wrong decision. I noticed that only this morning. It turned its face away from the sun looking to direction of the dark. This is strange. Plants should get sunshine to manufacture food for themselves. The sun felt disappointed with the flower's change of heart and is now asking what had happened to it. I shall continue studying the matter until know why all other flowers are struggling to get more sunshine while this one stays contented with the semi-dark environment and not bothering to take part in the scramble.
The Sun
Deep into the dark you disappeared
You ran away from my chasing rays
Look back please lest you go astray
Let me give you one passionate kiss
Turn back please. Talk to me please
The Flower
I love you dear sun, my dear darling
Your calls are genuine and sincere
They fly not from your lip's surface
From the depths of your heart they come
But fate left me hanging on the balance
And I seem to be tilting to devil's side
Between two hearts I'm torn apart, dear
That is true. Many plants prefer the shade. They will die in the hot sun. This is true of people also. There are as many different flowers as people.It is unusual that it should turn away indoors. However, I think that could happen.
A most interesting situation and poem, Abdi-Noor. Please keep us updated.

Very good! But you do realize that some plants prefer much less sun than others, don't you? (smile) (Just so you know, my house is so full of plants that some folks complain that they are in the way....good thing I don't care what others think. (smile).
