GOING TO SEED

No, I'm not  talking about myself 'going to seed'. I may be but the sunflowers are drying up and falling over. Really beautiful in graceful arches. The squirrels are coming and eating the dried seed heads besides the variety of birds, ever expanding, population, morning and evening. As Geraldine said, "It don't mean nothing (pause) except the flowers."
