Joyous Colour


One of the things I most enjoy about the Christmas season is having poinsettias throughout the house like jewels in our white and grey world. For three weeks they sit , fiery beacons everywhere our eyes might alight, or we sit awhile. Three downstairs, so we see them coming and going, one up in the T.V. room and one in my nest. Their colour comforts me, giving an inner warmth which I need in this tropical place, where I am too warm externally.
