She was a weed amongst the flowers, They called her a bad seed and took away her powers. The garden gnome saw her plight, Guarded her both day and night Until one day the lonely weed Had her say and God agreed To let her bloom in yellow gown, And to the ball, from every town, The bees came to the bower To court her dancing flower power!
