Mandy wrote a blog about

recieving flowers as well as her favorite flower

and then asked,

"What is your favorite flower, why that one?"

It got me thinking,

do I have a favorite flower?

There are SO many beautiful flowers

can I really pick a favorite?

My name is

Singing Daisy

but I don't even really like daisies.

They're pretty

but a bit too simple for my taste.

They have colored ones,

but they just look so fake.

I love blue flowers,

but I still have yet to find one that is

just right.

AND

I can't tell if the ones I've seen

are real or not?

Beautiful, but nameless?

Is it even real?
Or is this just a dye job?

Do I choose on looks?
Meaning?
Authenticity?
Or something else all together?

To answer my previous question

I can and do have a favorite flower.

The Stargazer Lily
even the name is breathtaking!
I love its shape
I love its color
I love its smell
I love its presense!

As a part of the lily family,
this heavonly flower represents
innocence and purity
but it also is a symbol of
wealth, prosperity, and aspriration.

When I hold these flowers,
I see the future.
