Mesmerizing Dahlias

Swarup Bhattacharya.

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."

    Your poetic description of the mesmerizing dahlias truly captures the enchanting beauty of nature. The imagery of dew drops on the petals resembling colorful diamonds and the gardener's wise words about beauty glorifying its own place evoke a sense of reverence for the natural world. Your ability to convey the allure and magic of flowers through your words is truly captivating. Keep embracing the wonder of nature in your poetry—it's a delightful way to celebrate the splendor that surrounds us.
