Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone…

Irises.
I transplanted these from another area of my yard. It makes me wonder:
What is their story?
Who planted them?
How long ago?
Did that person have joy in their life?
These Irises give me great joy!
So, thank you to whose ever hand first touched the earth upon which they still thrive.

I planted a white Dogwood tree this Easter week in memory of my dear friends Margaret and Andrea. I’m so grateful to have had them in my life.
I’ll “see them” daily in its blooms and branches and be reminded of their laughter and love…
And I will smile.
