Ah, Sunflower!

tomatotown, sunflowers, seeds, birds
tomatotown, sunflowers, seeds, birds
tomatotown, sunflowers, seeds, birds

Ah Sun-flower! weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the Sun:
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller’s journey is done;

Where the Youth pined away with desire,
And the pale Virgin shrouded in snow
Arise from their graves and aspire
Where my Sun-flower wishes to go.

William Blake, 1757–1827
