Flower, Bee & Consciousness

Bee attracted to bright flower

"Why are flowers

 such attractive?"

Was my first question,

When

I saw a bee

sitting on a flower.

I was flabbergasted,

To enjoy once in

a lifetime moment.

The bee was

extremely joyous,

To see garden

full of

charming flowers.

It was flying

from one flower

to another,

And was

blissfully sucking

the nectar.

But the bee

was unknown of

its hidden talent,

He was ignorant,

He didn't know 

about its pollinating power,

The flowers rely

upon bee for pollination,

But the

sweetness of nectar,

Made bee forget

It's a special talent.

We humans

are also

like the bee,

We ignore

Buddha bud

within,

And wasting

our precious

human form,

We tend to indulge

ourselves in

worldly pleasures.

Why are we

Ignorant?

Why are we

so engrossed in

mortal happiness?

Would worldly

pleasures

take us to Nirvana?

Would

mortal happiness

accompany us

forever?

Let us find the way

to immortal joy.
