Flowers

by lilly (leo) - Not entered

We have been compared to flowers.
How we blossom into adults, or how we smell 
so sweet, or how we are so fair and beautiful,or
how we are fragile and close to perfect, or how 
we are stepped on and destroyed, or how we are 
uprooted and discriminated, or how we are cut off
and mishandled, or how we are regrown to try again,
or how we die.
Yes, we are like the flower.

Reason for writing:

    i wrote this poem as a way to show how people are treated
and acted toward according to the world of flowers. i chose
to compare us to flowers because it is a simple comparison,
as you can see by my poem. i kind of see it as my finding
a way to treat everyone equally.
