712 : Hearts and Flowers

In response to but not entirely meeting an
 “Imaginary Garden with Real Toads” prompt.
Image provided by a friend.

While they are a gift,
The heart is in the sending,
Not just the flowers.

    Awww. You have been drinking rather a lot of the milk of human kindness this weekend. And I love the daffodils (naturally) and your thought.

      Maybe he is drinking something a little more potent. Whatever it is, keep it up..it has been a long time since we have seen this side of Cosmo. Very sweet poem.
