They say the Iris links Heaven and Earth.
There were few things Jack wanted in life, but he loved the Irises growing in our garden.. So we gave him our Iris & bird-bath. When the first bloom emerged, he came over to our house to present it to me. A week later, that first bloom sprouted new life. I went over to his house to give it to him. For weeks, he'd been away in his bach at Leigh. Synchronously, that one morning, he returned to Bayswater to receive 'my' budlet.
Rare individuals like Jack remind us of the 'magic', of all that is good in Life.
Sincerely, Geok-Lee, YEO
