Lily stepped into her garden and smiled at the rows of colorful flowers.
She knelt down to sniff a rose and heard a faint 'hello'.
Surprised, she looked around, but no one else was there.
"Who's there?" she asked, a whisper in the wind replied, "It's us, the flowers!"
Lily learned each flower had its own voice and story to share.
The roses told her tales of bees and the dances they perform.
Daisies giggled about the tickles from butterfly kisses.
Sunflowers taught Lily about the sun and how they follow its path.
The flowers shared their need for water and Lily listened carefully.
She watered the garden, talking and singing to the plants.
With every word and drop of water, the garden seemed to dance.
Lily promised to always listen, helping the garden thrive.
