I saw a nice little flower… <br />Enjoying herself in the nice warm fields… <br />The place felt fine, what a beautiful sight! ! <br />Why didn’t it come yesterday? ! <br />But the joy didn’t last long enough…what a pity! <br />‘Cause the flower was plucked away! ! ! <br />It was no longer there <br />So was the beauty <br />How gloomy the place felt now for sight! ! <br />Why do flowers bloom, if it has to be murdered this way? ? <br /> Still, they bloom, though they die so prematurely… <br />But to beautify the Earth! ! <br />Why do we hurt these little things, who give us joy? ? <br />They are the ones who blooms happiness to the world <br />Aren’t we too bound to be blossomed into flowers of happiness? ? ? <br />Oh Flower! ! I feel sorry for you! ! <br />Can you be born again? ? <br />If I could, I would’ve fixed you into yourself again <br />But powerless I am…powerless except for eyes that are blind, but see evil thoughts <br />Why doesn’t man think before his acts? ? <br />Why doesn't he care about his fellow creatures? ? ? <br /> <br />2006 <br /> <br />(Do you think before you act? Such as, when you pick a flower? Do you enjoy the beauty and DO YOU throw it away in the trash? Do you ever think of other people who may also enjoy the beauty?) <br /> <br />© Copyright Aiswarya T Anish, Kerala, India<br /><br />AISWARYA T ANISH<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oh-flower-i-feel-sorry-for-you/
