Mimusops Elengi in My Yard a Poem by Rajeshri Senapati Gogoi

In my yard 
A Mimusops elengi flower blooms 
The flowers are now 
falling in my doorstep one after one.
The scent of the flowers 
Are so fabulous .
You gave me the garland 
Out of those flowers 
Now, it's reminding 
me of the days
That we spent together 
Beneath the tree.
Even if the flowers are dry
Its fragrance always 
Remind me about you.
Small white flowers
Around me now
Give me the presence of you .
The sweet fragrance 
That  have spread although 
my thoughts and feelings 
Will never fade away 
Even though years pass.
The beautiful tree is large, 
With beautiful white flowers.
