Forgotten Flowers



Summer’s promising starlets
Dancing for water
Singing out for salvation
Forgotten flowers

Beneath the hot sun spotlight
Writhing white petals
Summer’s promising starlets

A garden mirage
The flower gypsies create
Dancing for water

Beckoning your attention
To hear their voices
Singing out for salvation

Victims of the heat
Sway to the summer’s swan song
Forgotten flowers

  1. This is some kind of form you have attempted here and with perfection. Every stanza is ending with successive lines of first stanza. These flower gypsies are amazingly beautiful, but there is tinge of sadness too. Flowers decaying of heat, shortage of water and above all neglect.
