On a bright, sunny morning, I was gossiping,
With a devoted sunflower. 'Don't you get
Tired of looking at the sun All day long?
Go get some rest and let me stand for you',

@Connie Yost, Thanks for your understanding that has inspired me a lot.
@Soumita Sarkar, Thanks for reading my poem and leaving your kind words here.
This goes deeper than I realized at first- -wonderful confab!
@ Aneesha Roy, Thanks for your comment. Your observation has inspired me.
Yes.......happiness and sorrow get distributed evenly..........no partner no side.........alls done in Nature well! ..........thanks for sharing it....
I loved this poem. The concept is absolutely ingenious. The conversations are worded beautifully and display an elegant poetic sensibility.
@ David Wood, True! As also would men who face nature's wrath and aberration (cyclones, hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, volcanoes, etc) .
If only nature could speak it would ask mankind 'why do you treat me so badly'.
@ Cassandra, Thanks for the generous comments. Thanks for reading so many of my poems. The title has been changed. Thanks for your input.
I love this poem! It's probably my favorite after Pristine Love and besides Love Is, and 'The Small Sparrow And The Small Lesson. This poem is rich in imagination, woven beautifully yet sturdily, and it deserves more than a 10! Great descriptions, and an attention-catching poem. Perhaps it shall draw more attention if there is a different title. This is just a suggestion, because Disharmony sounds a bit too... depressive. Plus, I do not believe that this poem is long at all! Thank you very much for sharing, Mr. Ahsan!
@ S P, Thanks for reading my poem and for the lovely comment.
sing the sweetest songs every night and weave the lovely poetry every day for us

as i have copied below, confabulation must be what my wife thinks i have. CONFABULATION: In psychology, confabulation (verb: confabulate) is a memory disturbance, defined as the production of fabricated, distorted or misinterpreted memories about oneself or the world, without the conscious intention to deceive.[1] Confabulation is distinguished from lying as there is no intent to deceive and the person is unaware the information is false.[2] Although individuals can present blatantly false information, confabulation can also seem to be coherent, internally consistent, and relatively normal.[2] Individuals who confabulate present incorrect memories ranging from subtle alternations to bizarre fabrications, [3] and are generally very confident about their recollections, despite contradictory evidence.[4] Most known causes of confabulation are caused by brain damage or dementias, such as alcoholism, aneurysm or Alzheimer's disease. Two distinct types of confabulation are often distinguished: spontaneous and provoked. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - in the line: You look without batting your eyelid for once?

@Bri Edwards, Thank you very much for your elaborate discussion on the word 'confabulation' and on some lines of my poem. Your efforts at explaining the subtle meanings and distinctions of words, phrases and prepositions are praiseworthy and very much appreciated. At the end, I am happy that the poem has gone to your 'MyPoem' list. :)
