SUNFLOWER FACE.

 

A bee sucks seeds in the sun.

Where can all the others be?

But for an abundance of bumbles

i counted only five this year.

Though friends say there's plenty

still busy here in Eire.

A sunflower success.

The tallest of four,

well over six feet.

I planted thirty.

Bold shadows on a lilac wall

beakleaved and dragonish.

Compliments the yellow crown

around sunflower face

spiralled buzzing speaker.

Sat looking from a low wall

up into bowed face humbling

silhouetted in gauzy glare.

Two tortoiseshells take place as eyes

in the round sunflower face,

wings open and close,

a wink.~
