        A Sunflower's Lament

        To the left,
        upside down
        I look for the sun,
        it cannot be found.

        To the right,
        back and fro,
        I look for the sun
        and still no show!

        Looking up,
        looking back,
        oh, my twisty stem
        says: "try a different tack"!

        OK. Standing tall,
        petals outstretched,
        sinking my roots
        with patience for my quest

(Anders, Please send some Sun south, to the rest of us,
and to Serafino's sunflowers! )
