A Garland


A lotus bud
meditates in fervent devotion
to the sole love of its life.
Numerous roots spread all over lake
strengthening its love!
It stands holding its smell within;
bright colors to unfurl ;
Waiting for all its prayers to be answered!

A bunch of milk white jasmines;
group together on an evening;
A twinkle on the corner of eyes,
a smile on the curl of their lips;
they giggle and gossip
and blush at the very sight of each passerby.
Intoxicating every wind with their rich perfume!

I walk on this side of lake,
collecting flowers for your garland;
A single lotus? or a bunch of jasmine?
I collect both..
And the choice is yours :)
