Analysis of The garland.
I saw a pale,dry garland
which was very seductive till the day break
when it was used for bed of roses,
now laying on the ground.
The pedestrians were stepping on its body.
It was trampled again and again.
It was torned,smashed
and crying for remedy.
O,garland though you were
adorned with flowers
but you were evaluated
for one night bare.
