Pink and white petals

swaying with the wind

spreading their fragrance

whispering to me

I look lovely today

here I offer myself to you

but please dont pluck me

I would like to see more mornings

kissed by dew drops

more nights

gazing at the stars

singing with the moon

oh lovely person

dont pluck me yet

I am far more beautiful here

than I could ever be

in your vase

I simply smiled

and listened

then a bee danced around the flower

drank its nectar

brushed against me

with its tiny legs

flew past my ear

leaving behind

the very same message

dont pluck the petals

let me enjoy the nectar

a little longer

I smiled again

with nothing to say

I like to watch

I like to listen

and quietly receive

the beauty

nature has gifted to us
