Flowing through thorny boughs --
Not just a vine, not just a bush,
But a perfect feast for the eyes.
Blossoming round the year,
Truly an all-time pleasure,
In the scorching summer blaze,
Or freezing winter air.
Torrential monsoon showers,
Hailstorm or killer snows
It is seen braving all odds,
Wearing its smile forever.
Braving with silent fortitude,
Vagaries of unkind weather,
Meeting challenges all the time,
With a '' never say die '' attitude!
That's my darling Bougainvillea,
A fountainhead of natural beauty,
A symbol of tough forbearance,
A model of sweet simplicity!
