Flowers Always Bloom

Flowers Always Bloom
by Litzi

The Nigella Flower takes 8-15 days to bloom. It is actually one of the fastest blooming flowers known. At least, that's what Google says. In the past eight weeks, I haven’t seen my mother. This past Sunday was Mother’s Day. I drew the Nigella flower for her because she helped me quickly bloom into the beautiful woman I am today. I say quickly because I have faced many challenges at a young age, but overcame them. She encouraged me to learn English, continue to do well in school, and always carry a good head on my shoulders. All the while, she was working, always more than two jobs, taking care of five children, and trying to educate herself. All flowers bloom, but the one I relate to the most is the Nigella flower.
