Brides ‘n’ Blooms

Srividya Subramanian posted under PenMuse-52 Poetry on 2023-05-14



Blooms seen along the countryside, Brighten spirits with multi-coloured hues, Spray intoxicating scent on the passers-by, Peep into streams like a shy bride. Bride who waits with a wanting heart, For springs of love to quench her thirsty soul For sweet flirtations to soothe every throbbing ache Treats or trials, she plays her part. Part of her life has long perished, In quiet, elusive embers of time, She covers her distress in elegant dresses  That hide memories once cherished. Cherished is she who dispels gloom, Makes valiant efforts to add a rainbow In dark skies threatening to shed copious tears, And spread cheer like countryside blooms.     Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
