With a heart full of gloom
I entered a garden of tulips
Its tulips are very special
Tulips in vivid beautiful colors
Smiling with a lot of glow
I looked at one tulip
Its legs and hands are dead
It can’t freely move like me
But smiled at me and said
My sound can make you dance
Eyes rolled on other tulip
Its drums are not playing
It can’t listen like me
But smiled and said
Can you play drums like me?
Legs moved to other tulip
Its sweet song is muted
It can’t talk like me
But smiled and wrote
My words can make you sing
I saw one more tulip
Its vision is dark
It can’t see me
So I went and said
Your smile is very beautiful
It replied, so is your smile
Its words filled my eyes
It cleared my gloomed eyes
And showed me new light
And also made me smile
