Flowers from here and there


The plains are decorated with
My beautiful colors, and the air
Is scented with my fragrance.


I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.


Song of The Flower by Khalil Gibran

I so love Kahlil Gibran.. very nice poem by him.

It's lovely to see such beautiful flowers as I sit here at work while a snow storm carries on outside.. thank you for the color and lovely words.

അതിസുന്ദരം, മനോഹരം ഒക്കെ ഒരു വെറും വാക്കായിപ്പോകും.........

ചിത്രങ്ങളാല്‍ കവിതയെഴുതി
വര്‍ണ്ണങ്ങള്‍ വാരിവിതറി നീ
ആകാശനീലിമയിലെ മഴവില്ലാല്‍.
