Analysis of Blossom

Kaviya 2004 (Tuticorin)



In the corner of a path unseen
to the million steps that mooned,
Not a single soul to lean
into the wind that bloomed,

A miracle with everlasting bond
could vanish from it's perch,
Erasing all of itself with a wand
leaving nothing left to merge

Little did the flower know
that her family so old
Strived amidst wind and snow
to continue their legacy untold

My little love, weak and pale
grinning with joy
Seeing a blossom's tale
blooming in coy

You wait all day as patient as an ant
for the wind that took
The blossom with praise to chant,
her meaning, her freedom it shook

The time arrived for the wind
to spread the feathers of blossom
Into the land of honor and Lind
Where are you my love, my possum?

Never have I ever felt lonely
in remembrance of your warmth
Being taken to a faraway land only
to return to be with you henceforth

You saw the world through an opening
that sparked my life with you
I'm adored and treasured like a golden ring
with nothing but everything true

I'm alive thanks to your sincerity
the greatest strength you behold
Help this poor child to smile my deity
a great epitome only you can unfold

Do not fret my dear
for your love is always in cheer
For finding sense in you
the you who found yourself in her.
