Hi scope online 

I went the link the @Sandy_123 shared and poetry and found free competition to write a poem about sunflower 

The poem called lonely little sunflower

The sunflower towers with great presence standing stall.

As the wind tries to blow to make the Sunflower fall. 

As the bees begin to swarm towards the lonely sunflower

Hour by hour the lonely sunflower was losing his strength to keep the bees at bay.

The bees are sucking pollen from the lonely sunflower. 

The sunflower looked lifeless as the bees and sucked all pollen out of the lonely sunflower.  

The lonely sunflower was brought back to life. 

When a woman called May gave the young sunflower some feed and a light sprinkling of water.

After a few days, the lonely sunflower was standing tall and proud again in the glowing sunshine.

    A poem called lonely little sunflower 


    add a  few  new lines to this poem

    The sunflower towers with great presence, standing tall, 

    as the wind tries to blow to make the sunflower fall.


    The bees begin swarming towards the lonely sunflower.

    Hour by hour he was losing his strength to keep the bees at bay.

    The sunflower looked lifeless, 

    as the bees sucked all his nectar to the very last drop.


    The lonely sunflower was brought back to life, 

    when a woman called May 

    gave the young sunflower some feed 

    and a light sprinkling of water.


    Within a few days 

    the loney sunflower 

    was standing tall and proud again 

    in the glowing sunshine. 

    Knowing that although his sweet nectar had been drunk dry, 

    the bees had collected his pollen 

    and not only helped with the next generation of sunflowers, 

    but helped May and her family 

    by making a bounty of honey.

    Dedicated to My Interloper
    Begone you malingering mass
    You body invader
    Leave my physical and psychological self
    To be as it should
    Your presence is not required
    You cuckoo in the nest
    Fly away 
    Take with you my sad soul
    Under your wings
    And disperse into the atmosphere.
    Wither and die
    Never to germinate again
    Within another.
