Even sunflowers have bad days,
When tears from petals leak;
Even sunshine hides her face
When clouds make brilliance bleak.
Even waves hang back in shame
When tidal forces woo;
So let emotion wash you clean
When life makes living blue.
Even sunflowers have bad days, When tears from petals leak; Even sunshine hides her face When clouds make brilliance bleak. Even waves hang back in shame When tidal forces woo; So let emotion wash you clean When life makes living blue.

Nice poem. And I loved the photo. 🙂
Thank you! Just checked out yours, too – nice to meet another who is ‘a work in progress’! 🙂
This is wow-wonderful too–I love your tenderness, Melody! What a blessing. God bless your day–love, Caddo
Tenderness is such a lovely word. Very well, I accept! 🙂
It’s what the world needs more of, eh? I cherish those few who are tender with me–and envy them the skill, which I’m so impatient to learn!!
That’s a tough one – it is so easy to overlook the needs and rights of others when our own get in the way. A battle of will to be sure!
Yep–tires me out to even contemplate it. Or maybe I’m tired from shopping–I got 2 goose neck lamps on sale! Whoa–Caddo, the Bargain Babe!!
Caddo, Bargain Babe and Poetic Prosodist! (Is that a word?)
Well, like we’ve discussed before–WE are POETS, and can make up words whenever the “wow” strikes us!
Love that attitude! 🙂
Maybe I need to open yet another blog, and put that on the banner/header….? More creative pondering… Deb and I have considered the benefits of having a hidden blog where we can be cranky, and no one will suspect our “saintly” selves on our main blogs. But that won’t work for this latest brainstorm: crankiness, and Poets with Creative Wow Power, just don’t go together!
I’m all for a cranky blog… 🙂
Thank you for the comfort of knowing we all have days like that. God bless you and thank you for brightening our days!
Thank you, Debbie! Yes – we ALL have days like that, even the sunshiny ones among us! It IS somehow a comfort knowing we are all in this together, isn’t it?
