The Gaze of A Flower

written by: Guna Moran

translated by: Bibekananda Choudhury

The gaze of a flower
resembles that of a statue

Stares for long

Appears as if
Eyeing only me

At the moment of landing on the flower
The eyes of the bumble bee
meet those of the flower

That gaze of the flower
Is it of love
Or worry

The bumble bee sucks the nectar stealthily

That is the blunder
of bumble bee

The Gaze of A Flower - May 25, 2019

“Hemmingplay,” is the pen name of Doug Stanfield, who grew up on a family farm in western Ohio, went with his parents for two years in Karachi, Pakistan, in high school and had lived, until recently, in Bellefonte, PA with his late wife, Wilda and their two sons, Ben and John. Doug was a writer, editor and director of internet communications at Penn State for 26 years. He has had a few disreputable occupations, including newspaper reporter and editor, and public relations flak, but is trying to make amends for his sins by writing poetry and fiction. When his sons were safely off making their own mistakes, he turned on the computer one day, stared at the screen, and began to learn the craft anew at age 67. Doug has published three books: "Mermaid Sisters: First Dive", a children's book; "I Came From A Place of Fireflies" and, "Snowflakes & Ashes: Meditations on the Temporary”.
