This is What I'm Made Of
I am a woman
Compared to the loveliest of flowers
A rose is a rose they say
As it catches the sunlight’s rays
No I am not a rose
I suppose
I am a garden
A garden made up of many flowers I say
I bring to you
Yellow Jasmines meaning Elegance & Grace
I bring Dandelions which are full of Faith
Baby Breath oh they bring such Innocence
We go down to the Lily of the Valley in all of its Humility
Never can we be without the Iris bringing its Wisdom
Pink Carnations run endlessly throughout showing their Gratitude
Gardenias emanate their everlasting Joy
My garden would not be able to exist without Hydrangeas for no one can last without Perseverance
Peony causing Healing to everything I touch
Then there is the Purple Tulips reminding me of my Royalty
For the daughter of a king I am
A garden planted by my creator
King of Kings and Lord of Lords he is the one that knows it all
My petals are soft and the brilliance of my colors emit through my garden
I am not a dry land overtaken by storms left in ruins for nomads to walk about
I am not a desert seeking to quench my thirst for water
I am not trying to fool myself by the oases who have tried to fool me
Living water flows through me
I am a garden Beautiful and full of mystery
My petals could heal and my petals can cause death to an enemy
Do not underestimate the soft beautifulness of my appearance
I am a woman – soft, gentle and beautiful
I am a woman – strong, intelligent, a warrior
I am a garden and my name is…
Eden
