each day a flower blooms,
the world becomes beautiful,
birds sing, butterflies dance,
buzzing bees tell honey is near-by,
even in the swift flow of the stream,
there are songs so sentimental,
only the one listening with the heart,
will feel the beauty of its flow,
and will know what life's secret is.

DeleteSuch a beautiful and perfect picture Balqis. If only 'man' would allow nature to do it's thing without constant interference, the world would look even more dazzling.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Rumpunch. Thank you for your beautiful words. :)
DeleteHow can you always carve out such beautiful imagery with words? As for me, there are times when I just can't seem to see the colors around me. I become so bleak and dark that flowers would wither seeing me. :D
ReplyDeleteYour post is as fragrant as ever. :)
I don't know, Sui, it just comes naturally but as you could see, they are very simple lines. In the first place, I thought I wrote nonsense! Anyway, thank you so much for your kind comments. :)
DeleteLovely flower.. lovely poem..
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jolly. :)
ReplyDeleteHey Balqis,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful poem! It's as if nature speaks. Every time I look at such beauty , the trees , the mountains, it gives me some sort of tranquility. It's true only the ones who listen and see with their hearts would understand this beauty.
