Little Purple Flower

by Sapphire   Aug 10, 2005


Little purple flower,
sitting on the tree,
you mean so much to me,
and represent so much.

Your middle represents my soul,
Strong and always there,
a home to whoever enters,
and never kicks you out.

Your petals stand for how many times,
my little heart can break,
without shattering into a million pieces and coming to an end.

Your stem stands for my body,
always there for the flower,
no matter what the weather,
always there, always strong.

Your leaves stand for feelings,
they hate it when they're picked off,
and will sometimes give you a wart,
for takeing it from its home.

Little Purple flower,
you represent so much to me,
stong, dependent, never faltering,
you mean so much to me.

    "you represent so much to me,
    stong, dependent, never faltering,"
    -stong should be "strong"
    -when u said dependent i think you meant independent

    "and will sometimes give you a wart,
    for takeing it from its home."
    -takeing should be spelled "taking"

    this was a pretty good poem. in a way, it is sort of hitting the reader over the head with its symbolism, but not all meaning has to be hidden deeply i guess. I'd work on making it so that if you have stanzas that are mostly 4 lines, all of them should have 4 lines. If you're writing a poem that doesn't rhyme, try to make it so that it doesn't rhyme most of the time.
