Patri Venkata Ramana Poet Personification

MARIGOLD

Merrily, I sway in the sunlight. 

Multi-layered corolla full bright 

Mostly found in yellow, red, and creamy white

Musky and pungent aroma, though slight

Makes mosquitoes run away in fright. 

Men have no menace from their itchy bite.

Mount on a hollow stem, which has low height. 

My presence brings festive mood and delight.

My looks make your garden a beautiful site.

My name ends in gold; it’s my sole right.


PLACE: 3rd
