Design by Robert Frost

The next set of photos from my black and white archive are of sunflowers. I took this photo in college and used it repeatedly in my screenprints and paintings. When I read Robert Frost's poem, Design, it became the theme of my senior exhibition. Here is the poem:
Design
by Robert Frost
I found a dimpled spider, fat and white,
On a white heal-all, holding up a moth
Like a white piece of rigid satin cloth--
Assorted characters of death and blight
Mixed ready to begin the morning right,
Like the ingredients of a witches' broth--
A snow-drop spider, a flower like a froth,
And dead wings carried like a paper kite.

What had that flower to do with being white,
The wayside blue and innocent heal-all?
What brought the kindred spider to that height,
Then steered the white moth thither in the night?
What but design of darkness to appall?--
If design govern in a thing so small.
