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.
