V. Deepa Poet Personification

I Am Delicate and Musky

Am I a flower or thorn?!

A thorn or flower..?!

Umm...

I am a thorn.

Nope.

Wait.
 
I am surely a flower.

Blossoming as a delicate flower.
I survive cleverly, 
amidst pricky thorns. 
Yearning for sunshine everyday 
I preserve my petals: 
keep them alive through drops of my 
overflowing tears by smacking their fears.
I invoke cheer among lovers as they can pick me to express their love.
I calm the hunger pangs of bees and butterflies.
I am used for the decorations 
at house,
weddings,
party halls & so on.
I am strapped together with a thread,
formed into garland for impressing god.
I am used as an essence for cooking too.
Oh my, 
I shower light on everyone around me.
That is Me.
A simple flower~
down to earth.
