Read the story and the poem then answer the questions 1 and 2 a simple flower story
Mary loved to spend her afternoons in the garden, watching the bees buzz from one flower to another. Her favorite flower was the daisy. She loved the simplicity of its petals and the way it always seemed to be smiling up at her.
One day, Mary noticed a small, wilted daisy in the corner of the garden. She immediately ran to get her watering can and gently watered the flower. As she did, she imagined the small daisy growing stronger with each drop of water.
Over the next few days, Mary continued to tend to the daisy, making sure it had enough water and sunlight. Slowly but surely, the daisy began to bloom again, its yellow petals stretching out towards the sun.
Mary was overjoyed at the sight of the daisy's transformation. She continued to care for it, watching as more and more petals appeared, until the flower was once again in full bloom.
The daisy may have started small and wilted, but with a little love and care, it became a beautiful reminder of the power of nature and the importance of nurturing even the smallest things.
The Daisy
In the corner of the garden
Where the bees and butterflies play
Sat a small and wilted daisy
Looking sad on this sunny day
But Mary saw the flower's beauty
And knew just what to do
She gave it water and some love
And watched it bloom anew
Now the daisy stands tall and proud
With petals yellow and bright
A reminder of the power of love
And nature's wondrous light
