BLOSSOM OF THE ‘THLADO’ TREE

BLOSSOM OF THE ‘THLADO’ TREE

I tied my own burden and desires in the balloon of thought,
Distending with the air would mean more of dream
To come true filling with delightful letters in my life’s ream,
Releasing in the universe to spring back heavenly verse through;
Just as the real lines on reel for us to be happy,
Listening the silent sound to get ready for getting ready,
Cheerfully be at ease and uncomplicated to see a perfect day.

And you’re blossom of the ‘thlado’ tree in my simple reason,
Beauteous bloom changing my weather out of the season.
