The flower (Veronica Chamaedrys)

I'm just a tiny flower she said
trying to do my best to spread
just longing for the space I need
but often am I taken for weed

The poet

I'm just a tiny poet she said
try to get my thoughts to spread
just longing for the words I need
but often I feel just like weed

Conclusion

They both need space to grow
