Divine Love Governing the World - II

I saw a glow upon a distant tree,

Orange lanterns lighting up the sky,

Huge globe-like blossoms set among the boughs

On a sculpted form that seemed a royal crown.

Approaching near, my eyes fell on the leaves,

Translucent ribbons almost latex in their feel,

In shades of mottled olive, pink and green,

Like dancers in some spirit-troupe's review.

Beneath a head of dense and darkened hue

Each flower clustered in a pendant ball,

Moving gently with a breath of wind,

And when they fell the earth was carpeted,

Her body like a gem-encrusted cloth,

Covered in refined elegance,

God's beauty for all, or one, or none to see.
