It’s most famous phrase is the last line, flowers will regrow again across the world which is often used to persuade someone to either be more adaptable, or when it comes to love, even if you lose the one your love, there are plenty of other people worth falling in love with in the world.
2. Whatever the plant: It’s a reference to the flowers mentioned in the poem he recited before.
