And Mother Nature sure knows how to dish it out sometimes. A beautiful piece, Sara.

For flowers to grow they need tough love, couldnt have said it any better, what a deep thought youv delivered here. Rain can be gloomy but it is in gloominess we sprout and thrive. Pleasure reading your work always

thanks for dropping by, dearest Ink. I agree...in gloominess we sprout and thrive. Delighted you got the message. Just fyi, Bill & I occasionally discuss poetry but we don't talk in rhyme.... :-) Well, occasionally when we're in the grocery store Bill will come up with a Limerick and is all but compelled to tell me and everyone else around us. It's hilarious. Appreciate your visit...have a splendid day, hugs, Sara

Ha, ha. I like that -- 'tough love.' Brings a smile to my face, and then the flowers! Very good. ~ Gershon '
