Analysis of The crying flower
The flower of the forest’s woo
Bloomed was she hitherto
I knew her since her budding age of virginity
But now faded is her beauty
She wasn’t sprout ere
From the trunk of a family tree
Before pollinated by sexy Bees
Breathing via the stomata
Wafting on the air the aroma
Crying the dew as a tear
After the rain fall disappear
While the sun glitters on the day
Excelled beautifully
Now she seems old ample
Expurgated from the bole
Washed-out on my hand
Thrown on the ground
