If I were to be a flower
I would be a sun,
she said.
I'd shine out among the rest
my pedals all glitz and glimmer

And me, said another
If I was a flower
I would be wild
carefree, lighthearted
basking in those who
call themselves the sun

yet I, another chimed in
I would be like the May
I'd carry the wanderers to a place of new
and when they get there, give them comfort,
reliance,
provide them with hope

Don't forget me,
said one more.
If I was a flower,
I would be wheat,
I would be the one to feed the nations
and hunger would cease by my name.

And I, whispered the last
If I were a flower,
I would be a wall.
