Fantasy Azalea Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi

Fantasy Azalea

Rating: 5.0


O azalea!
Heart lies in deepest sea!
Hope lies in greatest sky!
How caravan would rather be in valley
There came warrior upon a long road
When descend a little butterfly and wanted to seduce me
Ah no! I would not let myself be turned away!
I am from Heaven and shall return to Eternity
The loving Mother will grant me a brightest candle
Which will guide me into that intimate peaceful life!

Ah, how I wish I was familiar with the beautiful flowers you've chosen for your delightful religious fantasies! The problem is that the 'loving Mother' is a lie. God alone gives man salvation by Himself, through the Lord Jesus Christ alone. It is a beautiful fantasy, with delightful imagery. Unfortunately the beautiful tantalizing butterfly represents evil, for butterflies are so very beautifully delicate and flit so alluringly, I wish it might represent only good, but that is only my preference. Beautiful and fascinating, loaded with meaning, which I've only half understood, if at all.
