CONSIDER...
Allusion within three stanzas of poetry.

         CONSIDER...

...naturally beautiful symmetry,
         piston and pollen in petals of unity
         attracting birds and insects fluently.

No words can explain this industry
         within its pendulum of diversity
         in a world of uncultured purity.

Quiet winds dance in obscurity
         evoking visions clairvoyantly
         minds finally cured from alluring lunacy.

Poetic Devices 201 - Lesson 7 - Allusion

The first stanza alludes to flowers of the fields, which are here today and gone tomorrow; the second stanza alludes to the natural networking of the industry --- reproduction of flowers; and finally, the third stanza alludes to the blowing winds dancing amidst this beauty beyond the senses, a sure cure from the drum of mundane lunacy.
