    Sunflower, a beacon of hope
    *
    Love for flowers attracts no blemishes
    Mind the fragrance it's devilish 
    Mind the color it's eye catching
    A bouquet sprouts a love bug always

    Sunflower, a beacon of hope
    I'll never let it perish and die on me
    I take a selfie in the yellow fields
    Bees busy loving Pollen

    I'm the sun I'm kind to it's beauty
    It only cries when me, the sun, sets
    It gives it's back to sunset in protest
    But come morning the shy arms up again

    Like a sunflower with thorns
    Your jealousy is contagious
    Poison Ivy where are you welcomed;
    When a sunflower is a beacon of hope everywhere

    Like a sunflower I look up to a new day
    A new beginnings with welcoming arms
    Like a sunflower I work the daylight,
    Fold after sunset and sleep piecefully

    From dusk to dawn respect is pouring in, it's the culmination of many years because the sunflower has folded it's arms, evil is dark doesn't sprout love anywhere. 

    Come morning a sunflower is a beacon of hope again, arms are up and about waving
