I love flowers.
As I arrived at my Thursday school last week, I was greeted
at the doorway by some of the most magnificent flowers I have ever beheld.
These Japanese chrysanthemums stand almost shoulder height. The diameter of the flowers is at least
eight inches.
I was delighted to find the chrysanthemums again this week
had hardly atrophied at all. Yet
another reminder that I am living in a far different climate from my native
lands next to Lake Superior. Here
we are in mid November and flowers are blooming all over the place.
I miss the snow of my past winters…but when it comes time to
leave these year-round flowers, I will miss them too.
