    Flower for Funeral Poems

    Petals in Farewell Gentle blooms, stand in grace,Veiled in sorrow, soft embrace.Silent guardians, by the stone,In their beauty, grief is sown.Petals fall, a tender grief,In their descent, find relief.Colors fade, yet love remains,Through the flowers, memory gains.Nature’s sigh, in floral dress,Bids farewell, in quietness.Each bloom a note, in life’s last song,In their silence, we find…

    In the morning’s gentle glow,You stood, a bloom in solitude.Petals, a canvas for the sun’s brush,Roots deep in the soil of my dreams.Each day, your colors spoke,A language only souls understand.Leaves danced with the breeze,A silent melody, felt not heard.Your fragrance, a guide,Led me through forgotten paths.In your shadow, I found solace,Under the watchful sky,…

  • Perks of Being a Wallflower

    In shadows’ embrace,Quiet watchers thrive,Seeing worlds unfold,Where the silent jive.Amidst the loud,Their thoughts run deep,In solitude’s shroud,Rich secrets they keep.Eyes wide, hearts open,Finding joy in the unseen,In whispers unspoken,Lies a realm serene.From the edge, they glean,Life’s hidden tales,In the quiet, they dream,Where silence prevails.Not lost, but found,In the backdrop’s glow,Where silence sounds,Wallflowers grow.

    I Got Flowers Today

    I got flowers today, from hands that love,Their petals soft as whispers from above.Crimson, yellow, pink, a vibrant spree,Each one silently speaks to me.Morning’s light through petals, a delicate dance,In colors of love, in every glance.”Forever,” they seem to softly say,In hues that brighten even the gray.Midday sun casts shadows, long and lean,Upon my flowers,…

  • The Lotus Eaters

    Whispers of waves,edge of dreams,they wandered.Sun-kissed shore,time folded,serene streams.Bare feet traced,sands warm, embracing,trees offeredfruits, silken sheen.Eyes tasted,world erasing,into summer, unseen.Sky, dawn’s soft light,they lay, minds adrift,sorrowless land.Past, distant echo;future, line un-drawn,in this moment-stretched haven.World whispered,tranquil breeze,secrets of earth and skies.Souls with serene seas,every breath, centuries’ wisdom.Sea’s song, night’s lullaby,cradled in arms,time’s tide afar.In lotus’s grasp,moonlit…

    I’m Growing Like a Flower

    In soft soil, I stretch out,Touch of dawn, no room for doubt.Sunbeams dance on petals wide,In this growth, I take pride.Raindrops whisper, can’t use that phrase,Their gentle touch, my leaves appraise.Beneath the moon’s watchful eye,I reach upwards, towards the sky.Through storms and calm, I find my way,Each droplet marks a new day.My roots grasp deep,…

    In Lieu of Flowers

    In shades of green, beneath the sun,A silent wish, a deed undone.Leaves dance, the breeze their silent tune,A melody beneath the moon.No petals strewn, no fragrant air,Just shadows cast without a care.A quiet stand, a gentle plea,In lieu of flowers, let life be.Beneath the oak, a sapling grows,Where whispers once, now silence flows.A memory held…
