Those beautiful Peonies that I showed you the other day are devastated today. I don't really know the first thing about Peonies, but these flowers seem to be susceptible to even the smallest amounts of rain. I can't believe how battered they are after the rain we had the other day. It is a shame, because these are beautiful flowers, and they have this lovely aroma. But there is not much to put in a vase and bring in the house after this.

Peonies are so perfectly beautiful when in bloom, but they're not around for long - at most two weeks - less in harsher weather. That's why, once they've blossomed, we have to appreciate them for every moment they're here, before they leave us. Kind of like children that way.
What a wonderful philosophical lesson these flowers teach us! Thank you!
