Analysis of With Love I Grew



I never knew how good it felt
To feel the sun's warm rays,
Because until you came my life
Was always in a haze.

I never saw the flowers bloom
With color and design,
Since life was always plain until
Your love and strength were mine.

No never did I see so much
Though all of it was there,
Until you came into my life
And showed how much you care.
