Tomato Flower
Swaying in the breeze
a tomato plant, stands
Around the plant,
smile the rose plants
Buds developed on both
soon the flowers bloomed
Dazzling yellow rose
unfurled the fragrance
engrossed bees and flies
twined its stem
to greet its friend
branch shaken friendly
with the cute little
yellow tomato flower
that wedged tiny umbrella within.
Unrolling secrets through air
both vented gleefully
Then the gardner's little girl
arrived, exclaimed at the flowers.
She nudged the yellow roses,
inhaled its aroma,
kissed the petals
took selfie with it.
Unlike the yellow rose,
the tomato flower went unnoticed
Yellow rose felt bad,
could feel her friend's mind
" Ain't I beautiful", tomato flower asked
"You are! my friend" rose consoled
" When I start wilting, they will hate me
but when you start wilting, they would dance
coz then you will turn into tomato,
after all they are the silly humans" concluded the rose...
