posy

Postby bbeeton » Tue May 03, 2022 7:59 pm

A nosegay, or small bouquet. Occasioned by the gift of a posy that we found on returning from a trip, a surprise left for us by a neighbor's young daughter to welcome us home.

Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
