Hey here to give you a review.
This poem is so adorable and cute and so sad! I enjoyed reading it greatly so much so I read it out to my little cousin to entertain her for a bit and she also loved it. In the span of 3 hours I have had to read it out 3 times to her xD
Anyways, here is the review:
Very sweet concept and although this is a story about a weed it is very relatable to real life. This is because the major theme that I identified was futility due to stigma. The weed can represent any minority group (and even majority groups) in today world, it ranges from belief to race. The stigma of the weed being a 'pest' is what causes its death hence no matter how much begging or proof of its 'innocence' its pleads are futile.
The fact that it was never asked to be one but its the way it was made is also a very touching concept which gave the poem a very realistic view.
Although the format isn't the traditional one I think it fits the poem as a whole since its a first person narrator and has a very sweet and childish feel to it. (Please don't take it the wrong way i mean this as a compliment since creating something that suits adults and children is a hard thing to do)
Keep on writing!
