The Pansy

Step on me today
You'll see me tomorrow, 
Still loving myself
A trait you can borrow 

The bumblebees know me
And so do the birds,
Butterflies aren't flustered
By silly, silly words

With sticks and stones
Piled 'neath my feet,
Along with the manure
I grow in the heat

I've got the sunshine 
And I've got the rain,
The worms in my garden 
The windchimes' refrain 

I've got many friends 
Who are one in the same,
So, call me a pansy
What's in a name?
