Hibiscus Poem by RAVIKIRAN ARAKKAL

One flower blossemed
Today, beautiful and blood red
In colour with stems so green,
It looked even more fascinating,
But no bees came to it,
Since it lacked any smell
That is so natural to flowers,
But it smiled bsck to all
Passing by, in fervour,
Slolwy oscillating in the wind,
No body plucked to offer
To the gods or put in the hair,
So it outlived than other flowers,
To beautify the plant
And the garden of its residence.
