The Sun Has Seen Fit ...

 clears his throat, to recite ...


The Sun Has Seen Fit ...


... to grace us with a certain yellow

a floral joy both shocking and mellow

baseball player kids who love their nutty seeds

happily chewing the fruit of flowers that also feeds

the richest meadows store december sun rays

and help us get over january winter yesterdays 


some insist on daily toil

but the youngest part of us is the last to spoil

still the neighborhood bees

dancing for coworkers in childhood fruit trees

where to find their brightest yellow nectar star

sunflowers rich with the coming spring exactly where they are

covered in pollination cross

abide by every dude's real boss


quietly the flowers of our sun

a grand van gogh statement of how our earth still gets things done


to Mary and Steph
