Violets

I wasn't familiar with this
type of Violet when my
sweet friend presented them
to me on my birthday
back in June.

I thought they might last
a week and that would be
the last of them.

So I placed them on the porch,
in filtered sunlight.....and
watered them once a week.

Let me just say,
they've  been blooming
up-a-storm!
As you can see, they've
come in from the porch for
a while and now sit proudly
on a table inside our cottage. 

"You are the only person who
loves me in the world," said Elizabeth.
"When you talk to me, I smell
Violets."
