Fiery

Blaze
distal phalanges;
sparklers of pain,
in luminescent ligaments.
Carpals cussing, cursing
the dreadful digits,
gripping, griping,
grasping, gasping
rage.
Rage against
the pain.
Rage
through
agony.

Sunflowers Reign

Sunflower sunflower
Sow me a seed
Give me a time to remember
Stamens sparkle and glow
Row upon row
Forever

Sunflower sunflower
Shoot me a line
Show me a time to remember
Stand upright blithe
Reach for the sky
Forever

Sunflower sunflower
Spiralling high
Spirals abound in your centre
Yellow fiery and proud
Shouting out loud
Forever

Sunflower sunflower
Glitter and spin
Make me a time to remember
Queen of the garden
Sunflowers reign
Forever
