sunflower farm

My grandmother showed me Avvaiyar's verses about patience while we walked through blooming fields. The poet's wisdom echoed in those golden faces turning toward light, just as Kannadasan taught us about simple beauty holding profound truth. At seventy, I planted my first sunflower. Each seed felt like planting hope. My grandchildren came, their faces radiant as the petals they touched. Neighbors stopped by, sharing stories and seeds, building something beautiful together. When my harvest won community recognition, I understood it wasn't about winning. It was about reviving heritage, about hands in soil connecting generations, about how small acts of growth ripple outward.
