In the poem "Marigolds" by Eugenia collier talks about a little girls childhood and how her home was back then all dusty and how it would get into their eyes and they would get all watery and it would go get to their throat too. Also and she would get that picture in her head of the marigold and it would give her a feeling of nostalgia when she thinks of it. she was poor and she would always go to her neighbours and see her marigolds and she enjoyed it. Every time she remembers the marigolds she thinks of her childhood.
