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
