1. My Family Garden
My family is a beautiful garden
My mom is a sunflower
Standing tall and strong her shining spirit is the foundation
of our family
My father is a rose
Feigning sweetness with the threat of being cut by a thorn
the deeper you get to its roots
My sister is an orchid
Expensively unique, a rare soul whose delicate pedals cascade
in an array of complexity
My brother is a daffodil
Chivalrous from blossom to stem, sweet and good natured, a
beautiful addition to any bouquet
And I am a peony
Bashful yet open, light and airy, melding with the others
My family is a beautiful garden
