Whispers of Blooming Solace
Alejandro Cevallos 2004 (Quito)
What flowers can speak in the world of silence, .
Stopping surprises and inspiring laughter?
Can it mend a broken heart,
Bringing comfort, if only for a moment?
When there is grief for a loved one
Our words are often rough, soft, and gentle, .
We go outside, try to comfort each other,
But they couldn’t cut through the deep pain.
For we do not know what to say,
We think, looking for the right phrase,
For how can information really be revealed?
Deep love in myriad forms?
Imagine the situation, broaden your mind,
orchid or roses, beautifully planted, .
They were hand-raised and kind and brave.
and by the touch of water the gardener was found
Its fragrance and excellent grace
This gift is the giving of love and hugs, .
Have the power to open your heart,
Releasing a peace band.
So let me bring this poem to your ears, .
a gentle well with gentle loving glances, .
Let your words stir up the obvious,
Some feelings, blonde flowers.
About this poem
I wrote this poem to express the idea that flowers have the ability to bring comfort and solace even in sadness and sorrow. It explores the idea that sometimes words aren’t enough, and the simple act of offering flowers can say a lot.
