 Bouquets
|
We learn, at a very young age, that flowers are an effective
way to express our feelings. Chances are, you may have written or chanted the
poem above to a special person, or perhaps you were the child who came home to
your mom with a bouquet of dandelions clutched tightly in your sweaty palms.
The innocent message of sincere love for your mom lived on well after the
dandelions wilted.
When we hear the word "flower" we usually think of it
as a noun: a rose, violet, lily, etc. Those words certainly evoke images
consistent with our ideas about romance, weddings, love and beauty. It is also
important, however, to look at the word "flower" as a verb. In so
doing, it is clear why flowers have always been, and will continue be an
important element of the wedding ceremony and celebration.
