A New Life

Yesterday, I saw a tender bud,

It was shielded by its Sepal.

Just as a little unborn Child,

Is shielded by its mother’s womb.

Both unaware of the world outside,

Waiting for their turn to bloom.

As the day nears, both catch people’s attention,

Both are showered praises of how amazing they are.

Life waiting to happen.

And when they slowly ease out,

People around are overjoyed.

Admiring them and loving them,

Look how beautiful they are!

One has its Mother and the other has Mother Nature.

Nurturing them with lots of love and care.

Until they grow stronger and healthier.

So that someday, the nurtured becomes the Nurturer.

And give their Mothers, a reason to be proud of their Creation.

My Salute to both of them,

Because without them, Life may not happen.
