Imagine if a flower didn’t just wilt and die.
Imagine if, like humans who believe there’s
a better world we die into, if flowers had the
same after-death future blooming in some
floral paradise, maybe one where humans
went too.
I know this could be perceived as foolish,
but I’d like a celestial world for dead flowers
like that. And maybe where they’d even bloom more
radiantly and beautifully.
I’d also be fine with the idea that flowers
eventually reincarnate into higher life forms
until they reach the human level – eventually
getting off the wheel or rebirths into an
eternal bliss consciousness. And I wonder if you
feel that way too.
