Pretty Like A Sunflower
I want to be pretty like a sunflower;
Bright and happy and free,
Not afraid to face the Sun.
I want to be pretty like a stream;
Soft and clear and brave,
No matter what happens under the surface.
I want to be pretty like a forest,
Calm and peaceful and safe,
Undisturbed by things in my path.
I want to be pretty like nature;
Free and wild, my destiny to give
Back what has been so graciously given.
Bright and happy and free,
Not afraid to face the Sun.
I want to be pretty like a stream;
Soft and clear and brave,
No matter what happens under the surface.
I want to be pretty like a forest,
Calm and peaceful and safe,
Undisturbed by things in my path.
I want to be pretty like nature;
Free and wild, my destiny to give
Back what has been so graciously given.

Dear A,
Wonderful sentiment. I really enjoyed this poem. Looking toward the beauty of nature and fashioning oneself after its majesty is a wonderful reminder and I am so glad to have read your lovely poem as a reminder to do just that. H🌷

Pretty like a forest until a tree falls on you, right?! It's not always as pretty as it seems is all I'm sayin' not meaning to bring ya down. Lovely poem.
