GLORIOUS DAHLIA
A Poem Composed by Ranjit K. Sahu
Glowing in the morning’s warm sunshine
Large heads of colors swing to the winds’ mood
On the stalks they stand elegant and fine
Rising from their slumber variedly hued
In the heart beat of earth are heard their tones
Outshining all other decorations
Under their flamboyance fade flower zones
Springing woolflowers or bright carnations
Darlings of the green fingered gardeners
Awakening souls to voice of the earth
Hail the little heads that are head turners
Laughing away as each floret takes birth.
In the bosom of nature beauty grows
And thrills the eyes with its velvety shows.
