Easter Lilies by Brenna

Have you ever gone to church on Easter morning?  When you push open the front door and step into the vestibule, your nose experiences a slight tingling.  Then, as you open the door to the church, you're hit with the entire smell, the smell of Easter lilies.  They have been in the church since yesterday, and that has given the smell more time to spread and take over the building.  The smell is like dawn on a cool crisp morning.  It is like heaven in all its glory.   It is the smell of spring condensed into a single flower.  it is like all those lovely pastel colors come to life.  It's like pretty dresses swirling on happy girls through dewy grass.  It is the smell of life and the smell of pure, unspoiled joy.

Wow Brenna. That was beautifully done.
It seems you have been blessed with the wonderful ability to write so we feel we are there with you.
Just like Mommy.
Love you,
Grandma
