Seeing floral bouquets plucked or planted brightens the day.
My immediate neighbors have a vast empire of flowers the staff tend. They also have urns filled with color in their lobby.




If you had to guess, what might you expect my morning essential to be.

My guess would be coffee, even as I signal virtue by a cutback in quantity. I was a 3 cappuccini a day gal at one point and that dubious fact lingers as if the real virtue is in excess.
Actually, my morning necessity has become the brief walk to pick up our morning necessaries.
I grab a smoothie and a couple of madeleines. I visit the local Subway restaurant to pick up a couple of salads. Sometimes there’s another stop to be made, perhaps for banana or peach.



It’s during that walk that I pass the lush planting in our neighbor-building’s frontyard.
