I’m Growing Like a Flower

In soft soil, I stretch out,
Touch of dawn, no room for doubt.
Sunbeams dance on petals wide,
In this growth, I take pride.

Raindrops whisper, can't use that phrase,
Their gentle touch, my leaves appraise.
Beneath the moon's watchful eye,
I reach upwards, towards the sky.

Through storms and calm, I find my way,
Each droplet marks a new day.
My roots grasp deep, hold firm, stay strong,
In nature's choir, I belong.

With each sunrise, I stand taller,
Colors bright, my hues don't falter.
I'm growing, thriving, in plain sight,
From morning's glow to the calm of night.
