Aging Gracefully

This beautiful flower, aging gracefully as we move into October, was part of a lovely yard along the Riverbank Trail, north of Delta Ponds. Wish that was happening to me. LOL Of course, the glory of a flower lasts only a year, while we humans can build a life's record over decades of living. May we do it with grace and dignity.

I really like flowers that are a little past their prime. They take on a uniqueness that is all their own.
