My Little Flower

[Peggy]

I have a little flower, just outside my room
And every time it’s springtime, my little flower blooms

By day it’s touched by sunlight, at night kissed by the moon
Then suddenly it’s winter, my flower fades too soon

I watch it as it boldly tucks itself away
To face all by itself, each cold and blustry day

It’s petals all have shattered, it’s leaves are bent and bruised
I wonder how it can survive, to have been so much abused

When winter time has faded and springtime takes it’s place
I look outside my window, with awe upon my face

For my little flower, so small but yet so brave
Has made it through one more time to stun me with it’s grace

You write something nice and end up worrying about whether we think you know your seasons? delete that part. It detracts from the mood of the poem.IMO

I’ll take your word for it. Obviously I have never tried it
