Did You Hear?

Did you hear? What was that? The wild wind? Here I stand, with flowers, all colors. A rose talks, lilies sing, cactus cry.

Cactus cry. Can imagine that. I used to grow cactus from seed on my roof. Now I stay down stairs. Still have a few though.

Oh, Paula, this is just wonderful. I love the conversational first stanza and the personification of the flowers! With your love of flowers, I can just see you reveling as you stand "with the flowers." Have a wonderful weekend perhaps visiting a garden. Blessings my floral friend.
