YOUTH

Decorated with colour

Dipped in fragrance

Brimming with life

Youth is a flower

In its full bloom.

A flower has its softness

Embedded in petals

Nothing exists in likeness

Than the youth so smooth.

When the gentle breeze

Tickles her petals

A sprightly dance goes

Like the youth

That overflows with joy.

So lavishly she serves

Bouts of nectar

Out of her treasured bosom

To every flirting butterfly.

Youth is a flower 

In its full bloom.......
