Tiny and unsure,
She made her presence known.
So unexpected from this branch,
She was all alone.
The plant thought dead and tossed
She made her quiet dwelling.
That she would not bloom
The others found so telling.
A timid candy bud,
Daring to bloom for freedom,
Becomes a sign of love,
A princess in her kingdom.
This tiny hopeful flower,
Overlooked by all,
Became a graceful symbol,
A queen that will not fall.
We had to write a poem about nature in my English class.
