Sunflower

You stand grand and tall above them all

Your golden petals extend with majesty and grace

As the warmth of the sun reflect on your face

 

My dear sweet sunflower

I like it how you always face the sun

No matter what happens, it’s your life’s mission

 

So very much, I’d like to be like you

Make this my life’s mission too

Keep my eyes focused on all that’s bright

Let my light shine, like the sun’s glowing light

 

You are a happy flower

That’s how you make us feel

For this reason, to my heart you appeal

 

It brings joy to my soul

when I think about you

I’m thankful for God’s wonderful world

I’m thankful for you

 

So blessed and in awe

of all God’s beautiful creations

The birds, the trees, the flowers, the sky

You remind me of them all and lift my spirit high

 

Thank you, dear sunflower

For playing your part

And shining your light inside my heart
