The Reason For Flowers She fondles it in folded hands; holds it close, as though its lips were mine, to tell me by her simple love the wonders that are only known through flowers. |

Then I'll be a flower chile...... You know, I have noticed that when I write about this kind of thing, I tend to get more responses from men than women, and when I write about hard-nose subjects I often get more responses from women..... Strange, that, but not strange. I would never have expected it, but men do have emotions and you can express 'em here, while women do have other facets as well.... Should have expected it, but I didn't. Live and learn, Rat-boy! ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Hi Ed...you know you got to me with the flower theme...and I've seen enough men and woman do just what you have described, but you know, I think it is the gift that is treasured, and the one who gave that makes it so special. Hugs! |
