Wilderness Flower

No wonder why she was envied for her shiny hair not for her agility, beauty and whim; her name was Wilderness Flower... how could her mother have given her such a name? Unique and beautiful was her superb dancing, friends made fun of her...humming, " Wilderness Flower, why do you hide your laugh? Are you impersonating someone else? " She ignored those silly remarks, by gently landing on her feet, " Can you dance, not leap like foxes? " she responded with a voice so meek. " Surely we can and much better than you, of course! " They challenged with a cowardly threat, Wilderness Flower replied, " Why do you sweat? " They stared at her and shouted with voices too coarse, " Prove to us how talented you are! " " we are better trained than you by far! " She defiantly yelled at them performing with laughter on her tongue and would they let her get away with it, or prove her wrong? On stage she performed for a bunch of fools who didn't think she was the very best... and would Wilderness Flower set them loose? " " Why spoil it with hastiness? Let them wait and guess! " Was her murmur that not even a soul could hear, so why they acted so immaturely and allowed fear? On the shining floor she intentionally slipped screaming, " I broke my knee...drive me to the emergency room, I may not make at all and die on the way over! " " Don't die on us, Wilderness Flower...we are sorry for our bullying!" And pledging they cried and swore seeing their guilt loom. " You fanatics played with my emotions with convincing flair! " She attacked them with loud scolding words. " But since you admitted your foolishness, I will forgive you all, if you let me make fun of your silliness and die a sweet death by laughing as hard as I can! Wilderness Flower exclaimed. " Please do, we can accept that, but promise not to return as a mad bull! " They all crossed their fingers as she went into deep sleep... did she really give up her soul for some silly dancers who did more than leap?
