Within her is the power to create, nurture and transform.”

I
a girl stands to look
there's a red hibiscus hedge
right across the street
she plucks a blossom
always a skip in her step
on her way to school
II
roses she receives
bring a blush to her cheek
and promises too
settled in a few
guava fruit ripen sweetly
cozy comforts new
time never stands still
there are highs and there are low
the graph that life charts
III
yes she is bold enough
so she plants other flowers
and the bird love them
she can offer now
bird songs and hibiscus games
ever happily

Legend Of The Lady Slipper Flower
...Oblivious to the cold, almost indifferent to the snow crusts, and anxious only to get medicines for her husband and the people of her village Koo-Koo-Lee's wife ran swiftly over the drifts...
