A sunflower will grow
With much beauty to show,
But the wind must blow,
Which brings the rain and the snow.

Clothed in a delicate silk,
Fringed with a delicate lace,
Sprinkled with the color of milk.

Talking the talk of growing things-
Wind and water and weather.
Famous Poem
The mountain sat upon the plain
In his eternal chair,
His observation omnifold,
His inquest everywhere.
Flecks of blue
Lavender delight
Morning gold
The black of night
I had a little seed that I had found upon the ground,
I kept it in my pocket where it was safe and sound.
What may it be, this tiny little seed, now tucked inside my cloak,
could it be a sugar maple, or perhaps a mighty oak?
