A year or so ago, my pal Marla started sharing the sweetest, brightest #minibouquets in her Instagram stories.
They struck a chord. Other people started sharing theirs and tagging her. (Including me.) But then an election happened. And winter came. Hurricanes and fires. Book bans, logging on public lands, measles outbreaks, deportations, tariffs. Overwhelm is understandable.
And yet… And still…
Spring.

Pistils, petals, stems
Darlings at the dance dip, curtsy
And say yes again
