"In Loving Memory"




This is a paving brick, in a nearby public garden, in memory of my mother; the Orphan Reds are offering a flower for all.

Penny Cooper, the most official of the dolls, lays the tulip down.

"Glory be… for dappled things" is from "Pied Beauty", by Gerard Manley Hopkins.

I was going to save this for Memorial Day, but today seems fitting.

    I was very pleased to spot that red-headed tulip, so nicely tattered too.
