Open to Receive

Joy is a flame that glimmers

only in the palm 

of the open and humble hand.

Ann Voskamp from one thousand gifts

Although I'm mostly a perennial gal,

I do spring for Cosmos and Zinnia seeds.

This is our first Cosmos bloom,

and I hope the Zinnias do the same soon - 

they will be a lovely, bright green

and I'd love to share that beauty with you.
