Sunflowers on the Prairie

A million yellow sunflowers

are waving in the sun,

turning their faces

from dawn to dusk.

The sticky styles wait for bees

to drop some pollen from their feet.

Each style leads to an ovum,

a tiny factory for a seed.

This bird-feeder of the prairie

is a honeycomb of treats,

fringed in yellow,

nestled in leaves.
