Bloom

• Artist: Rygaen Yuui
• Description: Meaningless. Meaningless.
  Vanity of Vanities.
  All is meaningless.
  
  (After reading Atwood's "Happy Endings", I thought of this; The only true ending is:
  John and Mary die.)

Let bloom the evergreen flower:
Full of life
Filled of hope.
Let it drink the joyous sunshine,
Let water trickle its crown.

Let bloom the evergreen flower:
Chanted hallelujah,
Rejoiced the fullness of spring.
Let it dance in the lifting breeze.
Let its petals flutter in delight.

Let bloom the evergreen flower:
Full of bearing
Filled of necessity,
Let it scatter its seed afar.
Let its legacy ne'er be forgot.

Let bloom the evergreen flower:
Full of somberness
Filled with wisdom,
Let, only, to wither brilliantly...
Let live and shortly die.

i loved it. it had a meaning anyone could see, but a deeper one that you have to dig for.

I love it.
You've brought back that classic elegance I feared modern poetry has lost. I really like the rest of your work as well, you're really talented.
5/5 without a doubt.
