I Am

A tulip
I am
but a black one,
with black petals
Velvet they are,
but black
soft and smooth,
but black
a rare one,
but black
A tulip, I am
but black....

Beautiful, noatter petals, Upeksha, Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will find much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your way of writing. But, for the mean time, I will greet you with the same smile, other poets passed when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your poems. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you like. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND". Hugs* SKAT
