Champa Poem by S.D. TIWARI

If you want to make, night dreams fragrant,
and your garden ornamental and wet in scent;
just ensure, Champa is there.

In the temple at worship you wish to offer,
In weddings and festivals need the flowers;
pretty pure, Champa is there.

Bees close their nose, when know it's here,
girls go around aromatic with flowers in hair;
take for sure, champa is there.

Known Champa's medicinal value and virtue,
Ayurveda used it in so many formulations too.
ready to cure, Champa is there.

To keep the vampires and ghosts stay away,
within their cemetery limits for mischief play;
potent lure, Champa is there.

Champa's five petals point out to signify,
We have five elements contained in our body.
get endured champa is there.
