Believe you can and you
are halfway there.

The Flower
A flower rocks back and forth,
Doing what it's supposed to do
All the sudden, something
Heavy like a big shoe,
Stomps on the poor flower
Doing what it's supposed to do
When the burden is lifted off the
Flowers back, the flower was
Leaning with lots of slack
As evening came the flower shrank
And it sadly shrivvled up like
A small tiny snake.
