Sole Witness Poem by Valsa George
Sole Witness
A week back, in my garden bloomed, a tiny flower
Neither colorful nor flashy to grab anyone's attention
The next day one more bud opened of a pale golden hue
Making it more visible, adding an iota to its attraction
Each day to the delicate stalk was added more
Until finally it grew into a large globular cluster
I now stand nonplussed before its splendor
So lovely, it can steal any one's glance by its luster
When the wind ruffles the leaves of trees
The mother plant in luxuriant foliage stands proud
Bobbing her golden crown in gentle breeze
Safely screened from the gaze of passing crowd
A dandy butterfly has come flitting down
To kiss those regal beauties like a besotted lover
Embarrassed by such a public show of love
The bashful maidens bend their heads so demure
I am the sole witness to this passionate romance
To the love struck dandy's out right advance!
A beautiful expression of the glamor and grace of those budding beauties being embraced by the dandy butterfly........ loved the detailing of it's romance.
SO LOVELY, IT CAN STEAL ANYONE'S GLANCE BY ITS LUSTER. This poem gives me faith in time to unfold the true beauty of things, all that's required of me is patience for the full luster to be revealed. How many times I have walked past a struggling plant at a conservatory, unaware of the wonder yet to be! ... I wondered how the title would fit the poem, and its appearance was a delightful turn of phrase. But, of course, by the time you reach that crucial line we readers also are witnesses. That's the purpose of your poem: to make us, who haven't been paying attention, witnesses of beauty.
Simply phenomenal.....Valsa......the romance between butterfly and flowers transformed into eternity through your lovely piece of work.........great composition
A beautiful poem with full of expressions of beauty and love in the character of the flower which slowly becomes in full shape by gradual growth and the butterfly naturally coming which the poet sees as kissing in such beautiful imaginations.
