Friday's Bouquet



after noisy streets
on a wintry morning -
watching the world go by

Live today as if it is your last
For tomorrow will soon be in the past

Beautiful. I have noticed that many of your pictures show street vendors with flowers. Do many people actually buy flowers from them that often, so that is a lucrative business?
We have florists here, and I would guess most of their business is during busy holidays, and some of our grocery stores have bouquets available, but I often see them wilted and priced very low because of that.


Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

There were a lot of street vendors in Ha Noi selling all sorts of things, especially food. Flowers are also popular as an offering to the deities in the many temples here.

Beautiful pic and love the flowers. One bouquet like that where I live costs about $40. in a grocery store and even more at a florist.
