Analysis of Mesmerizing Dahlias



I saw many Dahlias
when I was walking
a garden at morning.

The dew drops on the petals
 were glittering like colourful diamonds   
of different shapes.

My eyes were dazzled.
My mind was seduced.
I was mesmerized.

I asked one Gardner
if I could cut
and carry one of them at home.

He answered me,
"Beauty glorifies
at its own place."
