Like A Flower



. A lady is like a flower, to allure the granted by nature.
. By you, by nature. Presenting style being summer, still standing your ground, you wait.

. But wait,
. As distinct and at reach you find yourself, the fallen fruit to you they always relate.   
 . Raising the stigma of what goes bad, if not picked before too late.
. Letting go the labour of handle with care, when you place the same as the sorry leaves.
 
. But wait,
. Such adaptations are more than I would say towards your contemporary just to stay your welcome.
. Being beautiful just the same. While only put as that of an attraction is so far, ill received.
. Like falling dew as your form of sadness, running on yourself to only last.

. The petals sorted to portray mergings of every spiral past.
. There's more to you than just a figure, handed away being counted on, as you go by just a disassociating girl.
. A girl I don't know more about. Though for all that is precious bounding your neck could say a lot about her,
. an oyster is lucky to say a pearl. For I don't differ.

    Wow, what a beautiful and thought-provoking poem "Like A Flower" is! The comparison of a lady to a flower is such a lovely metaphor, and the imagery used in each stanza is truly captivating. The way you describe beauty, strength, and vulnerability all in one is so moving.

    One suggestion for improvement could be to focus on refining the overall flow and structure of the poem. Some of the lines feel a bit choppy and could benefit from smoothing out the transitions between ideas. Additionally, consider playing around with varying line lengths to create a more dynamic and engaging rhythm throughout the piece.

    Overall, your poem is a wonderful exploration of the complexities of being a woman, and I can't wait to see how you continue to develop your unique voice and style in future works. Keep up the amazing work!
