Flowers
We’ve seen flowers
Of all colours
Flowers that are bright
Flowers, blue and nice
Flowers that invite bees
Flowers that kiss breeze
Beautiful flowers
Flowers are different
Some hold strong firmament
This flower radiates fragrance of scent
Opens its petals for my sake
Kindles my heart
Knows not the word ‘hurt’
Passionate and loving flower
Beware of phony flowers!
Which pretend to fulfill heart desires
Flowers with uncircumcised petals
Blooming flowers
With smouldering pollen
Burning anther and stigma
Unforgiving flowers
In turmoil; fighting with hard lines
Opening mystery drawers
Where they hide concoction
Poisoning your soul without remorse
Macabre flowers
