The Blue Lotus <br /> <br />From beneath dark waters <br />Rises the blue lotus <br />Unique, special, singular <br />Amid the common white <br /> <br />The muddy, murky waters <br />Her feeding ground <br />Experiences past and present <br />Her food <br /> <br />Beautiful thoughts <br />Fleeting <br />Flowing <br />Captured <br /> <br />The one <br />That owns her <br />Dare not sever her <br />For his delight <br /> <br />For he may not <br />Realize his prize <br />A mere ornamental flower <br />In his limited vase <br /> <br />He does not understand <br />In her root <br />Connected <br />Tangled <br />Intertwined <br /> <br />Lies her true <br />Identity <br />Neelima <br />The blue lotus <br /><br />Manjula Reddy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-blue-lotus/
