From the Internet: A Bougainvillea Poem

(No image inserted)

You should know by now about my love for Bougainvillea. There are certainly other flowers that I absolutelylove, but Bougainvillea has a different feel. A month ago, I was searching for some beautiful poems inspired by this lovely flower and came across a nice one. I've lost the link to the source since I copied it a while ago, just found it in drafts and thought, why not share it now? Here it is for you to enjoy, just as I did :♡

and then one day you find
a soul you want to bind
someone who makes you feel
you birth was not unkind

the garden of bougainvillea
is made of pretty flowers
but her branches and thorns
keep out the lovers

all you can do is
just be mesmerized
seeing the bloom
waiting to be euthanized
