Morning lilies in my room
with such eagerness did they bloom
do they not know
eternity does not beckon
with what ambitious thoughts
did they spread their petals?
or perhaps they thought
they could masquerade as wings
and fly away?
alas! Submerged in water
they live in a glass jar
doomed to wither in my room
diffusing it with celestial perfume
