White Flowers

This is a backblip from yesterday. I am not sure what was going on with blipfoto this weekend, but I had trouble getting my blips on Saturday night, and then yesterday, I tried to post this photo at least 20 times over a 8 hour period. At 11:30pm, I gave up and went to bed.

To the flowers

Bright little day stars
Scattered all over the earth,
Ye drape the house of mourning
And ye deck the hall of mirth.

Ye are gathered to grace the ballroom,
Ye are borne to the house of prayer,
Ye wither upon the snowy shroud,
Ye fade in the bride's jeweled hair.

Ye are relics of bygone ages,
From Eden inherited,
To gladden the homes of the living,
And mourn on the graves of the dead.

- Martha Lavinia Hoffman
