it is easy to adore

a flower.

wandering

on the lush, fragrant fields

under the tranquil

morning skies of spring;

-

delicate flesh

on playful palettes

of scarlet, violet,

and other breathless

blush;

-

emblems

of divine prowess

enmeshed

on earthly beauty;

-

dew drops of paradise,

pebbles of heaven;

-

by these reasons,

hearts are meant

to do the expected,

the natural;

-

yet,

what is so special

in adoring the adorable?

what is so unique

in loving the lovely?

-

aren't we

just giving what is asked?

pointing the obvious,

stating the factual?

-

if this is love

then it isn't much of a mystery

-

doubtlessly,

it is easy to adore

a flower.

~~~

fall,

I saw it fall

-

among the ocean

of multitude colors

- a dullness of hue;
