The Flowers that captured my sight one day






Oh, what a gorgeous ensemble of flowers
I knew them to be wild
reckless and carefree

Were they the ones that brought forth colours
on a blank canvas
So we reimagine
them 
in the wilderness
gone astray?

their brief breath
their last
Why do they wither away?

I summoned them back one day
when the winds howled
a distant foray

Neither the colours nor the season did I foresee
For when the flowers fade away
the way
 they did 
in the wilderness
They lost their way.
