Flowers! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Rating: 5.0


Reshama,

Who says they die?
they transfigure into
lingering fragrance
no sighs
and the seeds
for the posterity
to multiply.

it is not a flower
it is a flower forest,
an ocean of fragrance,
it is on birth, it is on death
in all shots it is girdled girth.

Why say red flower
have the red of
thy bleeding feet?
It blushes in love
and its warm hue
The love greets.

Why say they are
Wet with tears?
The dew drops
on them bedeck them
with sparkling jewels
scattering the golden hue.

Simply beautiful in every way. You are so right, as flowers become perfume, and I had never thought of that aspect of a flower. Loved it! 10 Karin Anderson
