Mamta, why don't you try pot filled with everlasting flowers, then smile lasts for evermore. Great Haiku. Bob

flower may fall....... but your words on hibiscus remain in mind

mamta ji namaste great haiku the hibiscus family also includes Hibiscus esculentus (lady finger-ocra-bhindi) usually in the subcontinent it flowers cream to dull light brown... but since centuries also9 in th west african hinterland there some varieties are pink to carmine...the local medicine men use it for inducing abortions and ethnobotany tells us with considerable success..... your haiku has a new twist and still stands true...and yup i am the one drawing the twisted lines here! ! cheers...great lines
