Sepia Flower Poems based on art piece

Life and beauty in a simple form

Petals burst open and veins brings them nutrients

From a bird’s eye view, it looks like a skirt twirling and wavering

Dainty and classic, small and thriving.

Sepia flower, sepia flower

I see your flat image on my wall

But, you are not planar.

You are in a realm of immortality

Frozen in one instant of time.

Sepia flower, sepia flower

I can see you as anything other than one-dimensional

From multiple varied views.

You are not depicting one emotion

But reflecting that of the being sinking his or her eyes into you.

Sepia flower, sepia flower.

You could be eerily glum with a melancholy air about you

Or you could be reminiscent of a beautiful chirpy moment.

You could be the flower that absorbs my tears

Or you could be the flower that begets my smile to stretch out across my face.

Sepia flower, sepia flower

So complicated is the essence of your presence

Causing one to never get tired of staring in your direction.

Catch my breath and hold it in,

Free me from the stresses of the outside world.

Sepia flower, sepia flower

My heart whimpers to see you once again

Like a hound mewls for the return of its human.

Your soft abundance of petals is mesmerizing

Your sharp crisp leaves bring me back to reality.

Gloomy night

Sun has set.

Yet,

I find myself

Wandering

Fluttering

Through the garden.

Cold wind

Stale air

Rustling leaves

Dancing

Floating

Through the air.

Searching

Through darkness

For the simple beauty

Of the white rose.

A glimpse of white

Standing out in the dark twilight

Through the bushes I run.

Drought

Scarcity of water

The liquid of life.

Spotted

Dying

Fading

Is the precious white rose.
