I was carrying fruits in a basket
blended with juices of my tears.
On the way, a fairy I met.
She brought posies of flowers.
She offered the posy descent
with dreamy eyes by saying ’Cheers!’
I gave tearful fruits to accept.
She adored as precious treasures.
Shiny flowers made me happy.
Exchange of tears with smile, really
was unfair to kind fairy.
In evening I am to discover,
blooming flowers drooped to wither.
Tears! I should respect and honor.
