Carol

Little sunflower, on sunny days you shine brighter than the sun itself
Brings a little light that dances around every room you enter
Emanate warmth and love, there is no cold when you're around
Little sunflower, on cloudy days you have no sun to look up to
So you look at us, and you smile broadly
And even the iciest blue eyes will melt just for you
Your smile is the heat that keeps us alive during the day
Your hair like rays of light, your gentle motherly eyes
Your laughter like a child's dream
Little sunflower, always so steady
Your roots ever spreading grow strong within my heart
And even in your sadness you can find peace
For knowing that you have so much light to offer
Little sunflower, you smell like vanilla
And everything about you is sweet, quirky and filled with starlight
You are the living proof that softness is strength,
that kindness is powerful,
And with every seed you sow,
You make this whole world beautiful.
