Watching The Bud Poem by Anil Kumar Panda

Watching The Bud

Rating: 4.8


Sitting in the balcony
I watch the rose bud
Swaying in the breeze
Waiting to open up
With the first ray of
Sun and attract the bees

I watch the first ray
Of sun appear in the
East and fall on the bud
And its petals open up
Releasing sweet scents
And deep color of blood

I watch it smiling in
The air with bees and
Butterflies flitting around
In the eve when sun
Is down I find it dried
And fallen to the ground

Minute observation of the life cycle of a rose bud and linking it with nature's law for the living has been nicely conceptualized through a simple yet profound melody. Thanks for sharing.5 stars.
