Tom, nice to see something as lovely as this. It's totally great that we can hold onto our joy and sense of well-being. It speaks volumes to who some of us are deep inside! I do like how you used blue flowers, the color blue sometimes gets a bum rap, but blue is actually amazing. It's possible she is giving the flowers to him. That wasn't my first impression, but I try to be open. LOL and Smiles!

Ahhh!! Nice romantic one and lovely accompanying photo. I don't think I have seen the color blue in Asiatic lilies. Quite unusual color. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Sara K

Thank you very much Darlene, sadly I haven't heard from him, I was hoping he'd look in on his 90th birthday, I hope he's OK. Tom

Hello Tom, I love how you've chosen something as specific as star-shaped blue lilies. It shows such care in the details, like you really thought about what would be most meaningful. The simplicity of your message actually makes it more powerful - sometimes the most honest emotions need the fewest words. Blessings, Tom, Daniel
