The Nest (another flower)

in which jennifer gets around to the flowers in a round-about way.

The Nest

I bought a hanging flowering basket set with peat, basket, and seeds. I hung it with just the peat in it on the front porch, and kept forgetting to plant the seeds, which makes sense since I only bought it to be sure we’d get a bird’s nest in it. I don’t want the flowers; I want the birds. So I save the seeds, wonder what kind of flowers they are. All the flowers tell stories. Theirs will come later.
