Thank you K. Yea it is the spidey which made me click, not the flower. I like the last name of the author, "outlaw" and such words of wisdom frm an 'outlaw'..lol.
Pluck this little flower and take it, delay not! I fear lest it droop and drop into the dust.
I may not find a place in thy garland, but honour it with a touch of pain from thy hand and pluck it. I fear lest the day end before I am aware, and the time of offering go by.
Though its colour be not deep and its smell be faint, use this flower in thy service and pluck it while there is time.
Tell me, gentle flowers, teardrops of the stars, standing in the garden, nodding your heads to the bees as they sing of the dews and the sunbeams, are you aware of the fearful doom that awaits you? Dream on, sway and frolic while you may in the gentle breezes of summer. To-morrow a ruthless hand will close around your throats. You will be wrenched, torn asunder limb by limb, and borne away from your quiet homes. The wretch, she may be passing fair. She may say how lovely you are while her fingers are still moist with your blood. Tell me, will this be kindness? More...
Awwwwwwww CB, Bful,just bful. Im convinced that Im dumb. For when I followed the ,link that u had provided, all that I could get was an excerpt from a particular chapter. But where is it from? How do I find out?Heeelppppp....

Achintya, It's from a book called "The book of Tea" by Kakuzo Okakura. This is the first writing i am coming across that reflects my take on the subject of flowers.
