Tigers, Tigers Everywhere!
Look at all the tigers! Not the animals – the tiger lilies.
They seem to be everywhere, blooming in attention-catching orange. The house on
the corner has a yearly display. Gardens up and down the street, around the
corner, and through the neighborhood have bursts of orange that are hard to
ignore.
I love to anticipate the arrival of my tigers. They are full
and beautiful. Best of all, they keep coming back! Sometimes, however, they can
take over, spreading into places where other flowers need their own space. A
small price to pay, I think, for the beauty they offer.
Life is like a garden, isn’t it? Some of what we encounter
is short term, like annuals, while some, like perennials, is lasting. Both
kinds of flowers add to the joy and diversity of the garden, even as our varied
experiences help us to appreciate the range and complexity of our
existence.
