Mimosa Poem by Suresh Kumar EK

What a delicate plant
You are my dear Mimosa
To fold your limbs and
Weeps, Touch me not".
"You are stripping me out"

But I do love it, always
For your rosy flower and
Leaves sensitive, with The
Mind of an innocent lover.
Oscillating, emotional
And sensationally pure.
Between sleeping and waking up
Complaining and caring
Apathy and empathy
Creating an array of
Repression and suppression
Bliss and a lot of fuss.


But dear I love you though
Your thorns are painful.
You prepare the soil silently
Make it fertile to live.
You are a soul apart
To be loved forever.
That is why my dear Mimosa
My love to you is eternal.
