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.
