Mind thinks a lot before
Infancies make things clear
Nonetheless travelling together
Each thing has its own preferences
Dusk ends up, time goes on, each on its own

All
Serene
Perfect plants
Instil calmness.
Do not fret at all.

Simply remain evergreen.

Rugged with patience and tapered will
All serene, perfect plants instill calmness.

Nurseryman (Acrostic Dictina)

No
Ultra
Rays required,
Shine is enough.
Each good seed he sows
Rhizome shoots look for light
Young shoots thrill nurseryman
More with hope and love he nurtures
And in inclement times his faith shines
No ultra rays required,……..shine is enough

Hotchpotch (Acrostic Dictina)

Heap
Of clouds
Trespassing
Coolly in dreams.
Her beauty is such
Profoundly so graceful
Opened my eyes and she's gone
Tone-deaf became my minds rhythm
Cosmic things do mesmerise at times
Heap of clouds trespassing coolly in dreams.
