Flower Power
If I am not your cup of tea,
What makes you think that bothers me?
A jasmine flower would not aspire
To be a snowdrop or a briar.
Yet every flower finds its bee.
It doesn't have to try, you see.
Its perfect self is all it is.
My message to you, dear, is this:
I will not change to match your mood
And so, not wishing to be rude,
Please fly away and find your flower:
Shading mine won't dim its power.
