A Rose
In a meadow surrounded by millions
 Its beauty stands out
 A bouquet of a hundred multicolored flowers 
 is no match for just one rose dipped in an intense hue
 My eyes gazed at the shy flower standing in the wilderness
 Frozen are the eyes of others 
 as it dances gracefully back and forth with a breeze
  How did Mother Nature bestow all her beauty to a rose?
 From its spirals to its stem each rose has the same structure
 Nevertheless
 Each one is still individual, holding its own exquisiteness
 I bent down to smell a luminous yellow
 As I whiffed, a waterfall rushed up my nose
 Swishing, Swooshing, and Swirling
 It flowed from my nose through my body and out my toes
 I felt as though I had just flown up to the clouds
 Bounced upon them and then had laid on them with my eyes closed
 Relaxed with the even breathing of Mother Goddess
 Its fragrance so striking and deep
 A melting ice cube with a touch of sweetness
 I touched the bloom’s outer layer
 It felt like a smooth and silky cloth
 Stepping back I looked at the other roses
 Red, yellow, orange, pink, and white
 Each color telling a gist
 Look closely and read what a rose it telling you
