Sunflower Project NYC Sunflower Project NYC Haikus from grula in orlando.... Orlando's sun burns Summer kills flowers fast here Plant some for me, mmkay? SFPNYC haikus.......... Plewp! That's the sound of seeds when they burst from their shells. Yeah, I made that up. Seeds in my pocket sprouting and bulging-- like they're happy to see you. Simple to do this. Bring a fork, squirt top water and wear comfy shoes. Sunflower seeds fall from my pants, shirt and my hair. Could be this year's look. It's a big old town. Somebody's got to plant it. Why not us tonight? I pretend to drop my cellphone in the planter. I leave seeds behind. Seeds sprouting quickly like champagne bubbles up your nose at a wedding. Wanted: Bronx people to seed their front stoop planters. How 'Bout Dem Yankees? Brooklyn, where are you? I mean I know where you are but where's your seed peeps? Seeking fine people to plant and water flowers in Borough of Queens. I read somewhere that No Man's a Staten Island. Whatever. Want seeds? It's The Garden State. I'd like to see sunflowers dotting the Turnpike. Westchester is just the perfect spot to stick one thousand sunflowers. Metro Card Fun Pass helps me water the flowers. I want a Vespa. Miles of flowers now. Can I borrow your Vespa through October? Plants and signs vanish. You say it's squirrels. But where do they stash the signs ? Is this your hobby? Yes, I say, crouched with my comb. Love scraping dog crap. Small dog and small mind in tow, local Tree Lady watches me closely. Accidentally, 6,000 seeds were dropped here. We hope you don't mind. Cracked cement pavement. Where did those flowers come from? What the hell is this? Planting sunflowers. Large Federal Agent says "Let's see some ID". "No, you can't plant there" Man with No Clue inspires 6,000 flowers Large backhoe grinding uprooted streets still aching Look! A little sprout! Forest of flowers Seem to appear from nowhere Must have been the birds. In New York, Cher can strut nude--no notice. Plant seeds? People stop. What's that? A fork in my bag. Next to my comb some wet seeds. Armed and dangerous. HAIKU FROM CAROL- Point Thank You Diva..... Armed with black seeds I glance around furtively then complete my task Dig hole with chopstick Make sure seed goes into hole Mission accomplished Look at me strangely Wonder why I'm poking dirt Doesn't everyone? Watering something? Not me, I just spilled water... for the seventh time top          home www.sunflowersnyc.com remember each life one flower at a time
