Original Submission by Rasika Kale

सदाफुली

सदाफुलीची फुले उमलली

वाऱ्यासंगे डोलू लागली

फुलपाखरे ही खुदकन हसली

अन् प्रसन्नता निखळ पसरली

सातत्याने फुलत राहणे

सकारात्मक, कधी न थकणे

उमलायासी कायम झटणे

स्मित हास्याने सदैव बहरणे

उभी स्वस्थ, दवबिंदू झेलत

तिजला कुणी कधी न गोंजारत

तरीही सहज फुले ती अविरत

तक्रार नसे कुणा परि किंचीत

नसतात ईश्वर चरणी कधीही

हताश ती न दिसतात जराही

केसात माळत नाही कोणीही

कधी न दिसे रुसवा तरीही

शिकण्यासारखे बरेच काही

उत्साहात फुले बारा माही

कौतुक इतुके जरी होत नाही

असल्याची मजेत देतात ग्वाही

निरागस सुमने दवात भिजुनी

अश्रू लपवी जगा पासुनी

मोद दर्शवी स्मित हासुनी

परी जीवनाचे मोल सांगुनी

पानं टवटवीत हिरवीगार

पाकळ्या पाच, नाजूक अलवार

कधी न जाणवे अहंकार

शिकवतात ती आयुष्याचे सार
