Sunflower
In a field of weeds
bright and radiant
inspiring, near goddess-like
Holy.
gazing upon you feels almost an intrusion
but still, it is not enough
not adequate enough to claim I know you
however much I revel in you
awe and intrigue,
confusion even.
the effect you have on others
the love and cheer casted onto others
it is something strangers cannot dare to imagine
even my privileged self is still learning
still discovering
when you bloom, minds follow suit
we find ourselves enraptured
I wish sometimes that I could face the world with bright yellow petals, shining towards the sun
golden, brand new,
otherworldly are you
knowing the risks and
smiling in the face of them anyway
bravery.
growing while glowing from the stem
up.
blessings will never begin to sum it
up.

I’ve had this in my drafts for months,
time to give her up. 💟
