Analysis of Flowers of Water
I got up early in the mornin’
And walked out dizzily on the busy road
Nature sprinkled water on me
They fell like flowers of water
And faded away after sometime
There’ll be showers of flowers
In the beginning and the end
A wedding ceremony on one hand
And a mourning ceremony on the other hand
I quite often feel
Flowers of love
Showered upon me
But withers quite sooner
Yes, Indeed!
All showers wither and disappear
