Marigold

Tall nettles above man’s head will reach Tiny lake like stream reflects staring into it visage Above the lake huge dragonflies dance The waters of the lake show true reflection of one’s soul Beyond the nettles Komodo dragon poison spews One can see abyss in his eyes On the side of the great oak before the forest There is a spellbinding marsh On the marsh there is marigold It bright yellow petals are like rays of the sun They grow on marsh but their roots are in my soul The memories of their divine smell spirit awaken Marigold reflects beauty of the light But it can see pain here on earth On earth they are symbols Of true clairvoyance and promise of peace
