Flowers In The Rain Poem by Rini Shibu

Flowers In The Rain

Rating: 5.0


Poetry is like flowers in the rain
Petals disperse it's fragrance in the breeze
As water drops sprinkle its freshness in air
Words flow soaked in the smell of wet mud
The pleasant smell spreads in the minds
And charm sways in the nature of poetry

Hi Rini, The simile is beautifully pictured- poetry has its features quite similar to Flowers in Rain.. How very true... : : Petals disperse it's fragrance in the breeze: : So does good poetry. The fragrance of poetry is what attracts, invites, entices and encharms the reader to it enjoy the honey hidden inside... : : As water drops sprinkle its freshness in air : : Words flow soaked in the smell of wet mud : : The pleasant smell spreads in the minds : : And charm sways in the nature of poetry: : : It is the closeness of the poetry to nature that makes it dear to the readers, and communicates with him/her.. ... Very well brought out... Just reminds of the beautiful but extremely poignant, allegoric and metaphoric poems of Malayalam poet Vyloppillil Sreedhara Menon: Onappattukar, Sahyante Makan, Kannikkoythu, Onnjaalil, Kutiyozhikkal... May be all his poems... Rini, you should read him... And when we speak about Nature-poets, we should speak of Wordsworth and Shelley first.. Thank you Rini, for reminding me about all those great poets... A lovely 100+++++ for this exquisite piece...
