kinder collects pretty flowers
picked from the garden
with fairies hiding within
to give to her mom
mom will be so happy
and the fairies will too.

“the fleeting flowers-
which mostly bloom for only a couple weeks-
have long served as spiritual metaphors,
and a reminder to live in the present moment.”
-National Geographic magazine
feeling grateful
for a wonderful surprise
from two of my friends
who gave me their set of original golden books
something i have always wanted
since i was a young child.
they knew i would treasure them.
