The flower blooms as the Universe

a million years for a flower to
unveil the art of divine creationto us
- fragrance, shades, curves, texture
and minute ingenious designs -
filamens, pistils, stagmens, pollen.
orchids, roses, crocuses, geraniums
petal by petal, inch by inch, second by second,
sun and moon, moon and sun a million other
universes accompany the bloom as it slowly,
surely digests the world to show us its beauty

as the bloom crowns us all at the apex of
its wonder - a million other universes too
have been born and move inch by inch towards
achieving a full bloom in the heavens
