Sweet Violets

Sweet Violets

You are brief and frail and blue-
Little sisters, I am, too.
You are Heaven’s masterpieces-
Little loves, the likeness ceases.

~Dorothy Parker

Hilarious! Dorothy at her best – sweet, acerbic, given to the twist at the end. Such a delight at the end of a long day.

Aren't the violets pretty. Just began my day, woke up feeling blah and saw these. Brightened me up.
