A flower has bloomed,
Did you notice?
Those smiling leaves-
Old and Young
Hiding their heaps
of debt.

She spreads her petals
Did you smell?
Those hopeful bugs-
Keen like its wings,
Kissing with its feet-
Pollen grains.

She waits for a life
Did you hear?
Ready for that touch-
The divine touch
Strengthening herself
It waits.

And she kept waiting,
Now in a jar
Filled, not with water
But with grief
of losing a child
As the heaps of debt
fall on her head.
