"And so the world is a big garden
In which flowers you'll find many
Some with thorns and some with leaves
Some as sweet as honey"
And as she stroked her little girl's hair
Who'd asked her a childish thing-
Why does my friend cover her hair
What's that sweet those saints give?
"And so those flowers grow differently
In different colors and shapes
You might have them black and bold
Or in orange, just like those saints"
And then as if to pause for a smile
She looked down again
Kneeled down and caught her cheeks
And said without restrain
"And in the end it's all about accepting
That each flower is pretty
We should learn how to tolerate
And you my child, must do your duty"
