All of these words have a connection to flowers. Wilting, when a flower becomes limp. Falling, when the pedals of a flower fall. Rooting, when a flower is bringing to grow its roots to support itself to the ground. Rising, when a flower is starting to grow. Finally, blooming, when a flower begins to show its petals and grow into a fully grown flower. In each chapter she uses poetry to connect0 the life of a flower to her personal issues with relationships. In every chapter there is a different perspectives of personification. One of my favorite parts of this book is a poem that’s in the Blooming chapter. “We need more love — not from men — but from ourselves — and each other” This part of the book is personally my favorite because for a very long time women have depended on men for many of their wants but what the author is trying to say is that we first need to love ourselves as we are then love and respect other women.
