I saw ...

by Renton de Alwis


This lovely morning
I saw the beauty
of a single flower.

Didn't see its petals
colour or sheen
yet I saw a flower.

A dew drop rested
I saw on a lotus leaf
plea to the rising sun.

Squirrels rushing I saw
birds chirp in a flock
heard a kovula sing.

A soft wind blew I saw
felt sweep my face
I know... I saw.
