Thank You

CHALLENGE! What is the hidden message?
I watched the pure white lily grow
And I sheltered it from the cold
I nutured it and cared for it
And it began to blossom

As I watched it grow
I saw a change take place
Weeds began to grow
No matter how many times I pulled them out

As the weeds took hold
You began to wither away
Your petals slowly turned black
And you began to wilt

As you wilted away
I saw you die
And as you died
I saw a new transformation

In your place was a little green bud
So fragile yet full of promise
I carefully removed it from the weeds
And I brought it inside my house

As time ticked by
The new lily began to grow
Day by day, taller
And I witnessed you blossom again

Out in the yard
I removed the weeds
They began to follow my command
And I placed you in your rightful spot

Years came and years passed
You slowly but surely began to wither
Not from weeds but from age
And you said one last thing

“Thank you.”
