J is for Johnny Jump ups
Their fragile-looking flowers
are really rather strong.
They can weather a late snow storm
as if nothing had gone wrong.
I love how they come back each year
dressed in violet, white, and yellow.
When they pop up in early spring,
they make me feel quite mellow.
Pretty flowers! I think we call them violas.
ReplyDeleteYes, viola is their actual name.
