The soldier’s rose


In every garden where roses bloom
there is one hidden rose
with shimmering petals & a divine scent
whispering to the wind
her last wish..
to spread all the petals
in the morning wind
so that is her virtuous wish...

The Illusion


While looking at the reflection, the rose thought “ How beautiful I am”. She bent little further to look closely “has anyone seen me as a beauty before? “ The feeling of loneliness shrunk her petals. She bent further to kiss herself. In a second, her petals were floating in water.

The paper boat

 


knowing impermanent

knowing not worthy

but the paper boat floats

as far as it can


rain is merciless

wind is uncaring

but the paper boat floats

as far as it can


It's paper can be torn,

or swamped by the rain

but the paper boat floats

as far as it can
