Flower for the Day Hyacinth 3-28-2020

My hyacinths are scanty this year but still striking.

                                  My favorite Hyacinth Poem by Sadi, a    medieval Persian poet.

If of thy mortal goods thou art bereft,
And from thy slender store two loaves alone to thee are left,
Sell one, and with the dole
Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul.
