My flowers today are like wildflowers.
They grow wild and sprout from wild grass
which my human companions planted
in front of our house named Heaven.
They appear like colored spikes among the grass . . .
. . . and later unfurl bright and beautiful pink petals . . .
. . . that suddenly fill the whole exhausted stretch of plants
dying of thirst from the 36 degrees heat of Manila's weather!
Yet, this plant remain strong and beautiful enough
to cover the entire plant box in front of Heaven!
My human companion Lui loves this plant so much!
Lui sings to it because it is not really a flower.
Like most of the wild plants we have in Heaven
the pink flowers are pleasant surprises
that reveal itself when the weather goes extreme.
Like when it rains on a hot day, the flowers appear!
Like my favorite bacon dog treats with cheese
that magically appear when Lui comes home
from being out all day . . . .
These flowers are so small
but when they appear at the same time
they call attention to all passers-by
who would stop in front of Heaven
making their day bright and sunny!
Lui said she will also try to post her own flower stories.
She said she will dedicate it to me
and for the people behind this meme
since it is the anniversary of FlowersToday last week!
So go and visit them for more flower surprises!
