Can somebody give a clear description of mrs. flowers from i know why the caged bird sings i have to write a two-page essay on how she relates to a person in my life and the worst part is that i don't have the essay questions! someone !

okay so i was just doing some research on it, so Maya saw Mrs. Flowers as a role model. She wanted to be  like Mrs. Flowers when she got older. Maya stated that Mrs. Flowers was a " Life Line". After Maya's "incindent with her boyfriend"  she was, closing herself off from the world, didnt want to talk, was depressed, etc. Mrs. Flowers was there, she would sit with her and force her to talk, and they read poetry together. If it wasnt for Mrs. Flowers Maya could have gone down a long sorrow filled road, being alone. They become best firends.
