Beautiful poem! The sorrow and loneliness of a lily is beautifully pictured! But the poem has a positive ending! Despite all neglect, she hopes that her seeds would grow!

So I had to work my self, the hard way, to understand about poems and the the minimum basics requirements, by reading, from books.
