Possession or Appreciation

Possession or Appreciation

P K Routray

Love you a flower from your core

captivated by its beauty and grandeur,

enmoured by its freshness and fragrance,

to own it lose you, your patience,

pluck it you from its plant,

withers it at that very instant.

Then the flower is not the flower you loved

scent, freshness beauty you only have robbed.

Leave the flower as it is,

appreciate it till it naturally dies.

Expression of love is not brute possession

But its expression is its subtle appreciation
