SUNFLOWER


The sunflower stands so erect she's elegant
and she's one of mother earth's more spiritual plants.

Constantly facing the light from above
She carries a message of beauty and love

She takes from the earth, the water and sun
But gives much more back before she is done.

Her uses are varied, you can eat her seeds raw
or crush them into meal like and Indian squaw.

She's been made into hair oil to pretty our heads
and those fibrous stocks made a great "prairie bed".

We can take yellow dye from her beautiful rays
and use it to brighten our lives day to day.

Her leaves and her seeds make a fodder for stock
and she gives up her nectar if you'll just pick her lock.

She's important to Russia so the poultry gets fed
and the people still use it for making their bread.

They get oil for cooking and oil for soap
and her fibers will surely be used for making rope.

So we've something in common if we just use our head
We could take back some missals sending sunflowers instead

She's the Kansas State Flower and Floral Emblem of Peru
But she's mostly just Beauty Spirit sends me and you.
