Flower Field in Your Head

Sighs from morning, one by one

The news says something “useful” again

You stretch beside me, hair a mess

“I saw a rainbow in my dream,” you said

I’m stuck in real life every day

You keep staring at the sky that way

But in your eyes, the world’s so bright —

It blooms like dahlias in the light

Your head’s a flower field

Even your worries start to bloom

When I’m sinking deep in grey

You say, “Hey, the sky’s so blue today.”

Your head’s a flower field

Spring in the middle of June

That smile — straighter than a sunflower —

It saves me every time

Running late, almost out the door

You stop to greet a cat on the floor

I keep staring at the clock

You keep dancing through the world

But that “waste of time” you make

Is what I’ve been missing all along

Like lantanas shifting hue

You make the day unwind in bloom

Dahlias, sunflowers, morning glories too

Marigolds all shining through —

But when you smile, I swear it’s true

Every flower fades in view

Your head’s a flower field

Even your pain turns into hue

When I’m lost and sinking low

You say, “Look up, the sky still glows.”

Your head’s a flower field

A spring that never fades from view

No bloom could ever outshine you —

Your smile is my light
