Read the poem below and answer the following questions.
In the tempest's dance, flowers tremble, a delicate ballet,
Their petals catching whispers, as storms try to sway.
Yet, in the gusty waltz of the relentless gale,
Each bloom stands resilient, a tale to unveil.
Raindrops like silver tears, on petals that they tread,
Yet, flowers bow not, they raise their glistening heads.
Against the thunder's roar, they send a silent protest,
Fragile strength emerges, creating a quiet conquest.
In the storm's fierce grip, where the shadows play,
The blossoms still endure, blooming come what may.
A metaphor for life, in the garden's sway,
Perseverance whispers, "You'll find your way."
What is the overall theme of the poem?
