Wild Flowers with Attitude

I’m saying with flowers for Sofia, who becomes a teenager today.

Flower number three is a bit of a tribute to Burt Lahr, the Cowardly Lion in The Wizard of Oz:

I’m afraid there’s no denying
I’m just a dandy lion,
A fate I don’t deserve

But I could show my prowess
Be a lion, not a mouse
If I only had the nerve.

Yip Harburg (lyrics), ‘If I only had the Nerve’, ‘The Wizard of Oz’
