Purple flowers, Central Park 12

IMG_4603 (800x532)

Knowing my deep appreciation for Central Park,
Tricia gave me the Christmas present of
tulips planted in the park in my name.
Today I found one.
A purple one.

Purple flowers, Morningside Gardens 5

Violets.
I know these by name, at least the common name.
Violets.
As a child, I lived on Neville Island:
7007 Front River Road.
Many times in the spring, I would go down by the river and pick
violets
to take home for my mother.
On Mother’s Day and every day, I remember.

Purple flowers on an egg

IMG_4398 (800x533)

Faberge presented the Big Egg Hunt as a fundraiser for Asia’s endangered elephants through Elephant Family and children in New York City through Studio in a School. Eggs were scattered across the city with QR codes to identify them. The idea being you were to find the eggs photograph them and tag them with the code. The eggs are now on display at Rockefeller Plaza. Makes them easier to find. Thanks to Tricia, Eric, Neal, and Jane who called this one to my attention.

Tricolor
purple on the top,
recently rained upon,
they patiently await
the more rain to come
for more rain always comes
in Seattle.

Purple tips,
battered by rain;
some bend,
others stand tall, yet wet.
