A Nation Who Destroys Its Blooms!

My Northern and Southern
Moving Blooms
Are Being Victimized!
They Are Decaying

Scattering Their Tiny Petals
On The Mother Earth
Who Is Being Soaked
With Their Red Corolla!

My Heart Is Weeping
Being Unable Averting
Horrible Deflowering
My Heart Is Weeping

Peace and Harmony Are Gone
Precious Blooms Abandoning
To Inhuman Human Predators

A Nation Irreverent To Its Blooms
Is Invariably Moribund
A Nation’s Irretrievable Faux Pas
Will Incontestably Decapitate It
