Walking down my street yesterday, it was a cold almost spring day and some flowers, like daffodils, hyacinths and tulips were starting to break the surface of the soil. That is when I saw the most unusual flowers and in full bloom. I stepped up onto the sidewalk and that was when I was close enough to see that they weren't unusually early blooming flowers at all. They were fake flowers that were planted in front of the house. Faded and tattered I thought to myself, Why would anyone do that? PLANT fake plants OUTSIDE. And while I am on the subject... why would anyone have fake plants at all? I was left baffled and a little satisfied because I felt in that moment that I had just witnessed something tackier than pink plastic lawn flamingos... and on MY street... Now, that's something to be proud of.
