A Flower To Auroville Mother-96

Panneer Maram(Indian Lavender,

Guettarda speciosa Linn.)

As high as the Lord
Your fame of fragrance
So is your sacred hold
Of holy-ash in credence

You're spoken about much
Your flora axillary white
Corolla tubes yellow-bunch
Hairy leaves clean bright

All gathered in serenity
Of great usefulness many
No wonder your divinity
Shrined in temples shiny
