Lotus of My Heart

Lotus of My Heart
                                                               
                                              Blooms
                                               Lotus
                                               In my heart
                                           spreading petals,
                                         pretty pure pristine
                                          flashing luster of peace,
                                       love, compassion, and peace
                                        on flavor of truth, honesty.
                                      Self-belief, devotion, diligence
                                     shine with Universal Moral Values.
  
                                  Struggled as a lone fighter on firm faith.
                                     Never compromised with injustice.
                                       Thorns of lies, malice, betrayal
                                        pricking piercing sublime heart
                                         Broken heart shedding tears
                                          soaked core forming mud
                                                    of injuries.
                                               Sprouted bright
                                                       Lotus.
                                                      Proud.

Anisha, My, my this is quite lovely. The word 'Etheree' is magically musical somehow. As is your poem. -Richard
