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”.
