Notes About The Poem

In Sublimity

Bird of Paradise,
                             petals blue-orange,
                             its vibrant colours
                             symbolize happiness,
                             watch the flower grow
                             in sublimity ~

                             colours of rainbow
                             sunset orange glow
                             depth of azure ocean
                             bract a crooning bird
                             paradise sublime
                             on earth a flower rare
