He gave me a flower
it was a magnolia
a flower I never
thought was beautiful
my obessession were with
dandelions
but when I received this flower
I saw something different
not only did I discover the beauty
of this flower
Within myself I saw beauty
Receiving this flower from this man
made me realize you don’t not
have to be what society wants you to be
everyone is beautiful in their own
way
and that is the beauty of it all

Your poem ends with a really nice and inspiring message, one that I think all people, especially women, need to remember. However, poetry is about reading between the lines, having a deeper meaning. I challenge you to try and write a second draft of this poem and keep the message, but don’t outright tell us what it is. Instead of telling us what it made you think, show us what it made you feel, and see if you can elicit those same thoughts and feelings.
