Sunflowers follow me On the street On the balcony Do they carry a message that I can't see? I soon forget I let myself get carried away By the tasks that remain What was hidden away Never bloomed The yellow turned brown Yet gold still loomed Underneath Rich and warm Powerful, tall What does it remind me of? Oh yes! A sunflower🌻
This poem speaks to our budding potential and where we at times neglect or fail to see how powerful we are. It uses the metaphor of the sunflower as a symbol of the greatness that lies within all of us waiting to be accessed.
I believe we are often given signs. Here the sunflowers acts as a sign which shows up repeatedly, guiding us to recognise where we too are similar to what the sunflower represents.
