After the Rain

Comes the beauty.




When these pretty lavender* flowers first popped up in my yard a few weeks ago, I just assumed they were weeds. I thought, how could anything of any beauty grow in my yard unless it's a weed?

But then my aunt told me that they were not weeds, that they were in fact Rain Lillies. They only sprout up and bloom when it rains a lot. Pretty cool, huh?


*Apparently, my Rain Lillies are of the white variety. They just have a lavender hue to them.
