The Flower

Have you ever seen a rare flower?
A flower that makes your eyes blur
in disbelief of its beauty;
wanting to nurture it suddenly,
you cannot alter or doubt its sensuality

It doesn't grow in rare places;
nor exists in any known spaces.
The morning dew resting,
the color is moistening
from the sun, glistening

It fathoms imagination,
this warmth, the nearest ray of hope
Seeking an experience;
this beauty is far beyond sense,
and the feelings are so intense

All I want to do is remain in touch
Oh!! if only I could touch
This initial and sudden distance;
Its morning already, why the fence
My heart never did make any sense.
