Being the festive season in India, the city I live in burst into bloom with myriads of colours. The vibrant hues of flowers radiate immense joy, and I wonder what would it take or feel like to be a flower.
Maybe, sipping the moonlight, shivering on winter nights, getting drenched in the rain, floating in the water, and so on - Just Being.
"Flowers speak to us when we know how to listen to them. It is a subtle and fragrant language."
Mirra Alfassa (The Mother)
How do flowers speak to you? What about them inspires you to write? Is it the colours, shapes, textures, patterns, fragrances, or something more than that?
Step into the world of flowers through this month’s haiku and tanka bouquet, get inspired, and allow a ku to bloom.
