Analysis of The Flowers of Vase



The flowers of vase
Which never produce fragrance.
They never dry
but they are my merry company.

Sometimes I take them.
Wash them
and keep them in same position,
as they are my jocund company.

When I observe
naked trees in winter,
I find those flowers more beautiful
as these are always responsive to me.

I wonder when nature incline to sluggishness,
Unable to entertain my heart,
only those flowers
help to revive my drooping heart.
