Answer:

A rock.

Explanation:

Eugenia Collier's short story "Marigolds," tells the story of a young girl and her family struggling to survive amidst the racist discrimination against the blacks. The story deals with themes of growing up, racism, acceptance, and understanding one's identity.

Lizabeth recalls how one night her father was so frustrated at being unable to provide enough for his family. He felt bad that his wife had to suffer and do more work while he feels helpless in not getting any job. That night, he cried while his wife consoled him. And it was at that moment that Lizabeth recalls how his father, "who was the rock on which the family had been built, was sobbing like the tiniest child."

Thus, Lizabeth compares her father to a rock.
