A flower

So small, so fragile

It can barely hold itself up

A tree

Strong and mighty

There to protect

The tree protects the flower

Hovering over it day and night

Protecting it from the rain and windy weather

But the tree stops the flower from growing

Shading it away from sun and water

The flower grows weaker

The tree still standing tall

But what happens when the flower moves out of the trees shadow?

Will it continue to weaken? Or will it grow?
