flowers of the sun
by tanner brockwell
flowers of the sun
remembering every one
the petals in the springtime said
follow the path
as each bud grew
and soon there was a panopy
of hues and grace and space
that was filled with the blooms
of draughts or drops or dew
that washed the flowers
beneath a slivered moon
that in a sense was awed
but still would smile soon
a smile for the dreams it’s true
that floated past the evening dew
and landing like the merest motes
upon the sleeping flowers still
in the mid’night silvery
a sky crossed with hosts
that audience that remembrance
the ancient and the day
all were lost amongst
a thousand thousand
petals and the buds
for sleeping then
and waking soon
for a wonderful
all in bloom
