Sunflowers.
Happy Hours.
Symmetrical Faces.
Hazy Days.
Lots in France.
In the sun they dance.
Yellow Soldiers, orderly sway
They move with the sun
Then turn away.
Symbols of Summers hot and lazy.
Van Gogh painted their portraits until he turned crazy.
Heads droop down as days start to shrink.
I would like to know how each one thinks.
Perhaps as a body they moved "Up North"
To test our fields of dark brown earth.

(Nice one, thanks Jill. Possibly inspired by the glorious display at Nocton?
They made me smile when I saw them. Ed.).
