Ra shines over the eastern horizon, <br />a shower of gold covers his domain; <br />all living things rise to greet the Sun, <br />then take their leave, except for one: <br />Tall, draped in green, <br />dark of face, sporting <br />a tidy ruff, golden, <br />head lifted to the Sun. <br /> <br />Ra travels across the sky, <br />that one never looks away, <br />locked in loving adoration, <br />inviting Ra’s admiration. <br />Ra is pleased with his devotee, <br />gives it a name fit for royalty, <br />adopts it as his own flower, <br />gives it his name, Sunflower.<br /><br />Isam Hussain<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ra-s-devotee/
