April
Arun KT 1968 (Kozhikode)
April, be kind
Your flowers are beautiful
I think they bloom for me
But it is for everyone
It is yours when you love them
Then you leave them for others to love
Remember, you are not going to
sweep them when they fall
You love the flowers on the tree
not the ones on the road.
I shall wait for the flowers of May
Then June, when the flowers of the sky
shall fall and make the earth bloom.
