Succumbing to the Cold

Ah Sunflower, 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 Sunflower wishes to go!

That's a beautiful big sunflower! Thanks for your birthday wishes, there's not too many people that can say they are turning the same age as their birth year. I spent a lot of time pondering this can you tell? A 7 yr old can and we can but I couldn't think of any other ages.
