The Cusp

[enduringplum]

The first buds have formed on the biggest of my zinnias and sunflowers. Right now they're just tight, little packages that have yet to burst in to color and I can't wait to see them when they do; I know it will happen suddenly somehow: I'll be so caught up in everyday life that I'll stop noticing all the little, daily changes and then one day I'll raise the blinds to find a flower garden singing with color just outside of my everyday life.
