The flowery show

Was she afraid of the life?
was it filled with torn strife
might be, she had the reservation 
for building the good relation 

what was an option open to her?
she did not bother 
the nature was with her
she was very much fond of the flowers
 
what do the flowers gain?
except to spread the fragrance later
in the evening, they were to fade 
as such they had selfless trade 

if this was the nature of the duty
she was conscious already 
and thus decided to remain unwed
her conscious was alive and not dead

her life went on 
the past was gone 
she was hale and hearty 
the garden was full of flowery show
