The "almost" complete works of Derek Neilson

The little kingdom by the sea Island life is the best life Green pastures and fresh air What more could you ask for? Life is simple and carefree The people are kind and welcoming You can't help but fall in love with this place And once you do, you'll never want to leave 

The rain falls gently down Upon the ground It makes a pitter patter sound As it patters all around. The rain is falling on the trees And on the flowers too It’s making everything so wet  But that’s just what rain does.  

I stand tall and proud, I face the sun and soak in its warmth, I am strong and resilient, I am beautiful and unique, I am a sunflower. I lift my face to the sky and soak in the sun's rays, I drink in the heat and feel my strength grow, I am invigorated and alive, I am a sunflower. I stand strong through the storms, I weather the winds and the rain, I am a force to be reckoned with, I am a sunflower. I am unique, I am special, I am one of a kind, I am a sunflower.
