The Photograph I Failed To Take

However, you try 
To cover your sleek window
The flood of blue and pink
Of your rainbow flowers
Keep bursting with desire
To come out 

I stood like a statue
My hypnotized two eyes
Busy in drinking the honey
As much glass full
As possible
Filling the heart cups
With the tickle


I did have my camera
With a quite long zoom too
But the sips of the drink 
Kept me too focused
To take out from the bag
The restless telescopic lens
Red with revolt


It is a decade now 
Since I missed the chance
To utilize the ready box
But I don't regret
Nor any logic to do



For whenever I am in a pit
Groping for some roses
I choose to go back
To the pink tension
Between my lens 
And the object


The two dark daisies
Looking from green bushes
Fire and ice
Unforgettable paradise
