Sweet Lotus Flower

by Ingrid   Dec 15, 2008


Sweet Lotus flower,
blossoming in the garden of delight
Many times he came to visit her,
enchanted by her captivating beauty
One day a cold wind took her by surprise
The young man returned, scissors in his hand
Alas, too late he came---
now on his table an empty vase forever stands
