Totality
Can it be,
as appears to me,
Love has sweet aroma?
For knowledge thus
I must confess
no suitable diploma.
I shall be schooled ..
Aye .. Golden Ruled .. by Hibiscus ..
lovely flower.
Fragile beauty ..
undeniably rare ..
bedazzled in dew by showers.
The lesson to learn
from that glorious plant
is true and so revealing.
One would think,
from petals soft and rare,
perfume would leave you reeling.
As in love ..
as in life ..
perfect beauty we don't always see
Hibiscus is rare
to the sight none compare
but for nose .. nothing will be.
So sniff them all ..
large and small ..
it's a quest fun and free.
But pluck no flower
until the moment
when your eyes and nose both agree.
