Take a Minute to Look at the Flowers

I love the instant before you hit the summit of a roller coaster. In that moment you can feel the build-up hitting its peak. Your heart begins to pound and you begin to imagine the thrill that lies ahead. I feel as if I'm there now with my flower garden.

Recently the alyssum began to bloom, little white flowers now fill my bed. The sunflowers are at that point where I can see the bud beginning to form but it's not quite there yet. I can now see, with my minds eye, the garden as it will be. Sunflowers standing tall over a beautifully fragrant white bed of alyssum surrounded by leafy hostas.
