A poem begins, a flower blossoms

Mind lay quiet with dormant emotions

Like the cloud vaccumed blue sky,

Wind-strarved ripplesless still waters

There comes the first cotton dots in the sky

The first ripples in the waters as emotions come

swirling in, a poem begins, a flower blossoms

The love for her, the love for science,

Love for nature, love for the country,

concern for the world,concern for the fellow beings

all stir up emotions to let the poem begin,

flow into a streaming cascade of flowering words

mind turns fertile, ready for reeling out more poems

It has been some time since composing the last poem

Mind engaging itself into things other than poetry

Like the change of seasons, change of actions

Drifted the mind away , the poetry seemingly lost

in the hum drum of daily life , it’s pressing agenda

life is a cycle , so is poetry making a come back in spring time!

The days of romance, days of science, days of nature

the days of concern for the country, world, fellow beings

though never away in daily life, are back again for poems

all the darlings of poetry would all be happy

to find themselves in the poetry once more

The poem has begun , blossoming flowers set in motion, enjoy!
