Colour of Spring

What is my favorite colour?
 It’s the colour of spring,
 See how bright the red rhododendrons and how loudly the yellow flowers sing,
 Their texture, the taste, fragrance and glaze,
 I wish to gather these treasures and make a bouquet of them,
 And perhaps, a little shyly gift it to a special friend.
 Remarkable isn't it, in love, in prayer, in death and in mourning,
 Flowers neither lose their smile nor their sacredness.
