Azorica

AZORICA

A time when everything on earth

Appear to me like the celestial light

Almost like a dream

A dream of glory and life

Creation of different species

Created by the mother earth

The wise god scattered its seeds

From above the clouds

To nature’s utmost mother universe

Leading to the birth of life on earth

And among them all

A star has fallen from its blue tent

To nature’s green bed

Conceived in winter and spring gave birth

That Bloomed in the Azoras

Belonging to the Boraginaceae family

A beautiful flower named “FORGET ME NOT”

The sky above with the silver lining clouds

The breeze blowing through the garden

Just touched the fragrance of the Azoras

And gave me the calmness of its smell

Till birth being tenderly watched over

Nurtured beneath the arms of sunshine

It let its petals free

With the sweet fragrance of the spirit

Each petal is a miracle of life

The hues of color

It blooms as a tiny blue flower

Beautiful, delicate, and sometimes

In pale misty blue and violet shades

It drifts over the garden in springs

Bringing true love throughout

And smiles in rows

Amidst the grassy lands

Walking through the streams by

Among the meadows, within the Brookside banks

Its shy nature let the prying eyes watch them

And cherish them in memories as they are “Forget me not”

The bees hum around them

Making others feel jealous of their presence

They toss with each other and swing to and fro

To make them feel the best in the garden

Even the words of William Wordsworth

Were expressed to be ever ending

For these beacons love “FORGET ME NOT”.
