The Last Roses

The other morning we saw the sun. Yea, I know, do a happy dance. But, seriously, it had been a while. It was cool out, but the sun was shining and I was low on Vitamin D, so I stood on the front porch and watched Morgan at the bus stop. Usually I hide inside the door and peek out every minute or so to make sure he's still there. I need to set up a mirror like my Mom had when I was taking the bus to school. But I digress...

As I stood on the porch enjoying the rays, I noticed my miniature rose bush. The one out of 3 that I have yet to kill with my brown thumb. It was beautiful. Even with all the cold weather we'd been having, it was still going strong. So I ran in for my camera and tried to capture the glory of summer. Just for a moment, it was there. And I was happy.
