Beautiful write! I love that this poem came from a happenchance encounter such as this. You my friend are a true poet. Looking at a flower you see so much more - you see it and its surroundings as symbolism for life. And I must add it seems quite accurate indeed. This poem is a gem, well done!
Often a lone beauty of nature attracts our attention and creates an inspiration like nothing else. The lone flower brought the best of your emotions and thoughts in a lovely poem. Thank you for sharing. A 10 +++.
You have adorned her as a lovely queen though she is not accompanied by a royal cortege... and not dressed in glittering brocade! Her pink face made damp by her tears of dew drops gives her a melancholic demeanor! Such wayside flowers stand out arresting though bent down in humility! A beautiful poem!
Thanks a lot, @Valsa George, for reading my poem and appreciating it with such kind and thoughtful words. Much encouraged and inspired by your comment.
@Nika Mcguin, Thank you so much for your generous praise for this poem, I as the poet feel highly inspired by the kind words you wrote here. I have just read your beautiful poem, 'Meet Me In a Dream' and commented on it. Hope, you will notice it.
