The Flower Too Shy To Be Plucked

The earth wastes not its blood

Bleeding to it does not flood.

Animals bleed when upset or cut

Some bleed for maturity as such.

Yet I bleed for a reason so different

Stop me before I become coherent

Losing blood may result in death.

Yet I bleed for a flower that took my breath.

Cambodia is a country so beautiful.

It is endowed with flowers not deceitful.

They blossom to colour the country elegantly

These beauties catch the eye magnificently

It is one asuch I espied to pluck

Yet into Oblivion it receded in the dark

Lonely I was left to weep in the gutter

With no sweet word ever to utter.

                            3

I looked forward in my hands to hold her and curdle

Her sweet smell filling my nostrils so Noble

Her kisses we're to sink me to deep Utopia

Her moanings to sound like the magic of a dibia

I would have carried her to the zennith of ecstacy

And came down with magic words of prophesy

                                4

 

As the stallion was about to meet with her kin

To request to pluck the flower being quite steady and keen

She did disappear like dew on the ground

My bleeding began without any word or sound

Where are you my Cambodian Flower?

I want to pluck and carry you to Kenya with power

Help my bleeding to abet

Remember you are my 26 letters of my alphabet.
