Rhododendron
Blooms of Liberation: Unveiling the Rhododendron's Mystical Palette
Lyrics
The shadow of your flower
The influence or presence of your beauty
Moves o'er the shrine
Moves over the sacred place or memorial
Leaves nothing but sun rising
Leaves only the sunrise, symbolizing a new beginning
Shadows in my mind
Creates shadows in my thoughts or consciousness
The flowers in the hallway
The flowers in a passage or corridor
Burst my solemn brow
Causes a disturbance or emotion in my serious demeanor
Your name is rhododendron
Your name is rhododendron, a type of flower
Your colour pours me out
Your color overwhelms or fills me
Through my senses, doorways open
My senses open up like doorways
I've been taking, now I'll learn to give
After receiving, I will now learn to give
I cradled my brush as if
I held my paintbrush as if it were my child
She were my child
Engaging in playful creativity with ink
In inky puddles playing
With joy, we smile despite using dark language
With blackened tongues we smile
Delving into the creative process on paper
Diving down to the paper
A palace where creative activities unfold
Palace where we play
Depicting the four cardinal directions
She draws the four directions
A prayer for guidance and inspiration for her
A compass for her I pray
My senses open up like doorways (repeated)
Through my senses, doorways open
After receiving, I will now learn to give (repeated)
I've been taking, now I'll learn to give
Ending with the commitment to transition from taking to giving
