Sunflower

Majestic thriving symbol…grown of earthen soil

Rise to your regal namesake…reaching flawlessly towards provisions beatific sky

Reflections of your crowning warmth, are the brilliance of the valiant sun

Uncommon beauty…attaining riches towards the lighted firmaments of gold

Beholding ideal symbols…mirrored by zeniths pure warming celestial light

Serenity beckons to silently unfold…within your royal statuesque of prismatic grace

Striking beauteous vows of longevity…glowing within the energy of the bestowing sun

This union from petals so brightly bound…upon the height of bounty’s tender bloom

Evoking feelings of integral warmth…within the happiness granting eternal wealth

Adoration succumbs peacefully, through your resemblance of affections opening kiss

Distinctive in stately pledged loyalty…provided by energy endued by heat and light

Revered Sunflower of beauty…through history your icon shall staidly last

From sweet seeds of nourishment…to the golden petals endowed of yellow imbue

Reach to your embowering throne…warming imperial heavens above

Acclaiming temples of imparting purpose…radiating enlightenments prospering day

Kiss these empyrean horizons…following the nobility of the aspiring sun

Flourish majestic symbol…let your hearty seeds carry on

MISC: The Sunflower! A beautiful flower which reflects so many wonderful positive characteristics of the sun! According to North American history the sunflower dates back to 3000 BC!  Archeologists have found evidence that sunflowers were grown by natives. The sunflower has provided oil & food where it was first grown in Central & South America. The sunflower is an icon in paintings. The sunflower gives representation of adoration & longevity, as well as endearing sentiments of cheerfulness of a sunny disposition. The sunflower has been found in the temples of the Andes Mountains, and Ican priestesses wore garments of representations of the gorgeous sunflower embellished with gold.

The yellow finches love sunflowers, your yard will attract dozens of yellow finches if you grow them. Sunflowers are so beautiful in a vase too, they brighten up any room.  They are an ideal garden flower, and in case you have never noticed, the sunflower will follow the sun!
