Volunteer Sunflower at End of June
Posted on July 2nd, 2011 by Ron
Ah Sunflower, weary of time,
Who countest the steps of the sun;
Seeking after that sweet golden clime
Where the traveller’s journey is done;Where the Youth pined away with desire,
And the pale virgin shrouded in snow,
Arise from their graves, and aspire
Where my Sunflower wishes to go!
– William Blake
Set to music back in the sixties by The Fugs, on their eponymously titled The Fugs First Album.
