Sunflower
How can you be standing after a storm
when others have been trampled, wounded and torn
But there you are so bold and bright
Still reaching for the sun
Sunflower
beautiful and bold
loyal and trusting
a treasure untold
So much power
is there in your heart
Facing the rain without falling apart
You’ve risen above the sadness and pain
when others have been beaten, or fallen again
But you keep your color all through the fight
still reaching for the sun
a beacon of courage for everyone
