Welcome to Teapot Tuesday
the Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty
and challenge #257
Encouraging a Friend to Bloom is like Sweet Perfume
Esmeralda was a wallflower
she was so shy she used to cower
Along came her friend named Vy
a sweet & persuasive butterfly
who convinced Esmeralda to reach for the sky
and not be a clinging vine who was so shy.
An encouraging influence on Esmeralda she was
just listen to the bees they're all abuzz
oohing and aahing about Esmeralda's beauty
as they collected pollen and did their duty.
Esmeralda prospered and dared to bloom
thanks to Vy's kind words that were like perfume
by cheering her on to blossom, Vy did good
Esmeralda reached her goal and thrived like she should.
