 Very little editing.

This is a macro of a very small lavender flower but the heart of the plant, it's scent, is big, fragrant and lovely. I know Shez loved flowers and macro images. I am sure she would have nothing but the kindest words to say about my entry. I only wish she could have seen it and experienced the overflow of love demonstrated by her peers in this challenge.

I've been looking at this plant for days now, thinking of Shez. Funny how someone you have never had the pleasure of meeting in person can occupy so many of your thoughts.

What a gracious, kind, generous woman. Small in stature but big in heart.

SHEZ, I THINK OF YOU OFTEN. YOU WILL BE MISSED GREATLY BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN. REST IN PEACE, DEAR SHEZ.

Thank you for your wonderful entry into the Shez Tribute. Shez would love to have seen it and I'm sure she feels your love.

Very appropriate title, the petals are like little purple swans, lovely.
