Perhaps Petals

Perhaps the petal and its perfunctory task
Carries a beautiful pride, a ape may be suffering;
The petals of pride fall deeply and definitely
Like a falling meteor, and landed astronaut.
The beauty is sustained by the natural plants,
Bark of trees suffer like the land animals
And their spirit of awe is obligatory.
Climb the ape-tree and find their food
To be perishing after many attacks.
The proud life concerns us at better times,
Intelligence sustains, intellect is absent.
