Sunflower: Breathing. Beating. Beauty. Awe.

Is there anything more amazingly beautiful than a seed sprouting.
The slightest leaf of green emerging from the soil.
Days pass.
Growth measured in spurts each morning.
A new day.

Sunflower reaches for the ball of fire that fuels it.
Reaching towards the sky
Taller. Now above my hip.
Greener.
Beating stronger every day.

Breathing.
Exhale oxygen.
I Inhale awe.
