SH+A+friendship+is+but+a+flower+Waiting+to+bloom+in+the+spring

The poet used the line "Friendship is but a flower waiting to bloom in the spring" in her poem because this means that friendship will keep growing and growing as time passes, and the flower blooms even more as each memory is created throughout the friendship. I also believe the poet uses a flower to demonstrate how the friendship will grow because a flower is beautiful and delicate just like friendship is. When it says "waiting to bloom" I think this means that it's just awaiting for all the possibilities of a stronger friendship filled with many treasured memories that will last a lifetime.
