Most people think flowers are the most beautiful things in the world.
So it is hardly surprising that everyone from poets to screenwriters has spoken about gardens for decades; from budding seedlings to blooming blooms in a kaleidoscope of colors, gardens are a veritable gold mine of inspiration.
“There are always flowers for those who want to see them.” — Henri Matisse
One of Mother Nature's most exquisite creations are flowers, with their vivid hues and delightful scents. In the comfort of our own homes, flowers are frequently used to mark significant life events—such as the birth of a child or a moment of solace after a traumatic or depressing incident, as a well-wishing gesture during a sickness or a joyous occasion like a birthday or wedding, and particularly as a token of sympathy upon the passing of a loved one.
“We don’t ask a flower any special reason for its existence. We just look at it and are able to accept it as being something different for ourselves.” — Gwendolyn Brooks
I find such solace or happiness in the vivid, magnificent buds for a reason. Flowers represent strength and purity in addition to being a vibrant décor. Although a flower's wilting and dying are a metaphor for the frailty of life, a floret's journey from bud to bloom is a beautiful allegory for one's own progress.
“Where flowers bloom so does hope.” — Lady Bird Johnson
