Those four pink flowers,
hanging from a single stem,
so beautiful,
so magestic.
But, some look as if they're
about to fall off,
and then,
there the ones that just keep hanging on.
Some get tired of hanging on, and they loose their grip,
and they soon loose their "joi de vie",
and only the ones that keep hanging on,
and never let go,
are the ones that will succeed.
It may be the worst year,
day, or moment,
of your life,
but you must keep going,
or run the risk of falling behind.
So never let anyone,
pull you from your stem,
like a weak flower.
And never get too involved,
with the flowers next to you,
so that you always are concentrated,
on what YOU'RE doing.
So, be careful,
and cautious,
like those
four pink flowers.
Author notes
ok, lets just pretend that flowers have to work hard to keep on the stem. . . I am kathryn, if you didn't notice.

This is AW-SOME! SO IT'S A gold trophy winner! i think in some places it's a little pushed. My favorite part is........ all of it. The thing I like about it is that you can actually feel you are the flowers. If you were one I think you would seceed. I think it's in good stanza. 5 or 6 is sometimes the best. I think it would have been better it had rhymed. I think a awkward part is
And never get to involved with the the flowers next to you...... Never mind I get it.
GREAT JOB that did deserve a gold
P.S This poem does not need improvising.
