Smitten by solitary marigold
in some lonesome corner
succumbing to death
Made me to plant marigold
in my own ravishing garden.
Each passing second made me
doleful, gloomy, my life in blue.
Each second when I saw
tainted leaves of marigold
rancid flowers dying!
May be angels forgot to rain……
I cried whole night, amuck tears
showered to water my marigold.
I failed with my swollen, puffy eyes
I failed horrendously
I failed for I cannot see death.
I replanted my marigold
in same lonesome corner
in a hope,
originality is what,
which gives strength to fight.
I can now see my marigold
fighting death and surviving with new bud
Adieu is not some good bye to end……
but good bye to hold on forever in memory.
beautifully written!
Neilina – Thanks Candy
Hope is as immortal and true as death and darkness and light go hand in hand !!
Neilina – Very True BlueMist.
hmm actually I am a bit confused here..I know we got to give things second chance, but in our vast and wide garden we have so many untouched corners for us to replant, may be the marigold deserved a newer and a better part our of garden
Yes Rambler, may be marigold deserve newer and better part of garden. But I don’t have time, to replant it in every new corner to check which corner will suit the marigold to replenish. Marigold is one who will suffer if I do this. Main point is that Marigold doesn’t want to change, want to stick to its own originality without bothering who else thinks about them.
I really like the part:
I failed Horrendously
I failed for I cannot see death
I’m the same way–and I find those lines touching.
Neilina – Thanks very much Maine.
I cried whole night, amuck tears
showered to water my marigold.
Heart warming lines!!!Gr8 thot.Has a story somehwere in between these lines, about the author or the flower hmmmm….
I failed horrendously
I failed for I cannot see death.
Hmmm…intense.
Neilina – LT, may be the story is in everyone’s life. Marigold as ‘relationships’ and I as ‘anyone among us’.
Glad that you liked the lines…….
Wow ya…
Awesome thoughts:-)
