Be that as it may, their greatness is ,
They live fully, forcefully, and feverishly
During their brief stay, holding sway
Over our minds, by radiating fragrance,
Displaying multi colours of rainbow .
They do not complain, the audience is not
Stationed there to celebrate them and appreciate
Their beauty and fragrance,
their very glorious existnce though
For a short while.
Their greatness is ,like "trembling happiness"
Long after they are fallen from trees,
And crushed under the feet of human
They do not experience any pain of death
Nor do they have any fear of it as they
Have lived a full life
And the scent they have left behind, lingers
For ever in the cosmos.
Flowers showcase to the world how
The so-called humans, the advanced specie
Must live ...
The bees and flowers live not for themselves
They live well and hence they also know
How to die with peace and quiet,
Before returning back to earth.
From my Adelaide Diary ( 2020)
This is dedicated to Ilayaraja the artist and Na Muthu Kumar ,the poet who died young in recent times .
We shall shun those hate viruses and live with nature
and generate more harmony
