Pathways to the gates of heaven

For long had I wondered
The real meaning of human life
Always intrigued by a flower
Reasons why, I was unaware

Something in those beautiful petals
Hidden in their heavenly smiles
Was the meaning of things entire
Fools of the world, beware

Lying awake in the nearby lawn
Staring upwards for times on end
Rays of reason, ignorance bridged
Knowledge here, truly abridged

To each petal, jealousy devoid
The flower does its scent spread
Lightning of pure wisdom struck
Boundless joy runs amuck

Life’s purpose so neatly dispersed
In world’s features, delicately soft
Friend, nothing in this world entire
Follows you around, forever

So, dare to dream and dream to share
Dare to gleam and gleam to spare
Giving makes you Gods’ torchbearer
Gates of heaven… that much closer



Sample STEM concepts: Plant biology, liquid diffusion, chemistry of scent
