The Flower That Lives On


From this little bud emerges a cotton flower, 
It will live on as a thread in an endearing fabric!  



As I drive past these cotton plantations amidst blue skies and black soil,
I wonder-
Where will this flower go?
Into a weavers hand or a machine's warp




What will it become?
An ikkat, a chanderi or an ilkal?  
A saree, a dhoti, or a kurta? 




As I cruise along with these thoughts guess who is looking upto the sun?
