A Complex Character

If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.

The elegant Mock Orange appears pure in the simplicity of its buds; yet in its form as a luxurious, fully open blossom it is ravishing with more than a hint of licentiousness not to mention its intoxicating fragrance exuding into the hot summer night. Contemplating the multiple personas of this little flower I appreciate the complexity of characters that make up each of us.
