In hot Summer days Red gulmohar flowers smile * And wipe away hurts. * *: in classical haiku 'interpretations' have to be avoided - flowers don't smile.. ;)

Your poem suggests a bond between flowers and humanity - they delight us with their beautiful appearance and the effect of that perception of beauty is consoling to us. (Someday I'm going to Indias and when I arrive I'll say to the tour guide, Show me a RED GULMOHAR FLOWER!)

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback.We are always influenced by nature.A seaside view may cool down our nerve and chirping of birds may fill us with pleasure.I am happy that my poem on gulmohar flowers has created interest in you to know more about it.I should have uploaded a picture of this beautiful tree.In our region(Odisha, a state of India}, gulmohar trees are found in forests and they are planted on roadsides of cities..They grow speedily and will flower in one year.Here Summer season the days are too hot.During this time the gulmohar trees are covered with red flowers and leaves are barely visible.It is a beautiful view in contrast to Summer heat.

I do not know what a g.... flower is but it doesn't detract from my enjoyment of this haiku [it might add to it but it doesn't detract]. but I react to this flower as if I knew it as a welcome friend come to call on a summer day. I just have to go explore these other haiku you've posted- I hope they are even half as delightful as this one!

I see - it's a tree with lavish red flowers. That's even better: flowering trees are among nature's most inspired creations. I look forward some day to smelling its aroma and sitting in its shade with a volume of poetry at my side and a cup of chai.
