Mimosa Rose
by HeadCase on Jun.10, 2005, under Philosophical
I feel so helpless when I realize I can’t do anything to open her up. She is a hybrid of a rose and mimosa leaves, sensitive to intrusion and will close away all her lovely petals… slowly, but surely, with time and no sense of present danger… they will begin to open up again. I recall as a child, how the behavior of these shy mimosa leaves captivated all my attention as yet now again. I would try to touch it as lightly as possible, so I could feel it while it was open. It took hours and hours of waiting for each attempt, to find that perfect pressure of sensitivity for me to be able to run my fingers down the leaves, slowly and so gently. Now I sit here patiently, and wait for her to open again.

Mimosa (Touch-me-not) – the name tells it all. Don’t touch me please. I don’t want anybody touching me. Oh No, here comes Casey. No… Casey No… please don’t touch me. Arghhh… Noooo… I’m closing up, I’m withdrawing, shutting myself completely out of this world. Haih
Now, I wonder if it’s safe for me to open up again. Hmm… I’ll take a chance
(Slowly opening up now) Gosh… Casey is still here and look at that grin. No… Casey… don’t do it again please. Hey… owch… Sniff…
I’ve never come across anyone so determined to wait for me to open up just to see me close again. Hehee… Lolz…
