Gorgeous sunflower

Tilt your head, follow the sun

Ready the bird seed.

Morning chill returns

The air feels so crisp and bright

Smells of fog and leaves.

Summer’s hanging on

Parched, dry leaves too tired to fan

Hot air lays heavy.

It pours from the sky

Causing rivers to rise up

Turns streets into streams.

Pinks and whites all ’round

Landscapes splashed with such color

Spreading so much cheer.

With mind games and lies

Only we wound, just because

We think we’re so smart.

Clever little birds

Knew to hide before the storm

As humans get drenched.
