Blossom Drop: The Story of a Flower Finding Its Petals

I think I lost a petal!

It dropped right off my arm.

Oh, there it is! I found it. 

Hope it didn’t have harm. 

Now I lost another one. 

It blew away in the wind. 

Soon I’ll be naked and cold. 

My petals seem to have thinned. 

I wish I could keep my petals. 

Now someone pulled a leaf. 

When it rains, I get wet. 

Ouch! My side is in grief.

If you find my missing petals, 

Please bring them back to me. 

We’ll paste them on with honey, 

And I’ll be beautiful as can be.
