To Easter and New Beginnings

[18thVirginia]

Wonderful. Just wonderful. My grandfather loved pansies best of all flowers--he called them "little monkey faces."

A blessed Easter.

And to you, @Pat Young.

A blessed Easter to you. My Mom's favorite flower was pansies. She always said they had happy faces.

Who else? I have a feeling 18th Virginia has a favorite holiday.

Okay, to keep up my tradition of flowers at Easter. There's a yard in a nearby community that has what must be a zillion Amaryllis in bloom right now. I took a few photos. Happy Easter.

I love the way you have contrasted the stark images of those who were slaves with the beautiful and colourful images of flowers. There is always an 'Easter Rising', and sometimes images speak much louder than words. Thank you.
