This is absolutely charming! I love the idea that you want to be like them. They have many admirable qualities.
I love your final line
But flowers are inside of me
Well done poet

Pam,
This is a great poem; you express the concept of "yearning" so well.
I yearn for things in my life; to travel and see wonderful places I'll never know.
if I were to be a flower, I would want to live in sunny Italy,
A wonderful thought-provoking poem.z
Best wishes for health and happiness,
Cindy

I also love flowers. I have a lovely garden but here in Spain it is so hot at the moment That lots of them have shriveled up. I will start again in Fall. Nice poem and illustration. Love Jen.

I enjoyed reading your lovely poem. It was cheery and bright. I also enjoy walking among the flowers. I am thankful I don't have allergies like my husband.

Did you mean to give me four stars? If so, how can I have improved? Thank you.
Comment from Samantha Wymer
This poem is so cute and I enjoyed reading it about nature. I like to see how you view nature yourself with such a remarkable poem. I really
like the nice weather and flowers, but the pollen causes bad allergies for everyone. We are very connected to nature. Excellent.

Comment from SimianSavant
Thanks for sharing this well-crafted poem about flowers. I know this is sort of your signature style and I will still suggest the following:
-crop off the bottom of the image to remove the ugly white border and text
-use a larger font and turn off the word wrap
I was also initially confused by this line: "but, my intentions, flowers foil." I understand what you MEAN; it will just be a bit mucky for the reader to understand that right away since you are flipping the clause order to end on a verb. I thought at first the word "foil" was being used as a noun.
Thanks for the read,
SS

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
This is a sweet and rather philosophical verse about being a flower. Your verse has a good, solid rhyming rhythm, fluent and pleasing to read with an added fun factor! Take care Debbie

Comment from BOO ghost
BOO is reading...I suppose, BOO picks this as my favorite stanza.
I watch the flowers climbing high.
They yearn and strain to reach the sky.
I wish so much to be like them,
but, I don't even have a stem.
Shutterstock does have a good collection of pictures. Deviantart ain't bad. "Stop and smell the roses!"
Flower power! Nice poem!
BOO!

We shall say that you are a flower child and that God has blessed you with all the beauty that every flower has...the scent, the looks, and the happiness that the flowers bring. Beautiful thought and poem/
