stinky little things...

















Several times a year the hoya blooms.....

















stinky little things, they are...

gorgeous clusters of small pink blossoms
dripping with nectar

but they do not smell nice....

i received the plant from my dear friend Kae the year before she passed
she didn't like it
in fact, she wanted to kill it
it didn't do well for her...


it has flourished in my window
and several times a year it /she reminds me
that if you look past those things that are unpleasant
you will often find great beauty....

and that life continues
and flourishes
and blooms

even though, sometimes, it stinks
!
