My Shy Violet


Most of you probably won't get the reference to "My Shy Violet," a tune made popular by the Mills Brothers.  Who?  Google it and add "You-tube."  They were before my time too, but you would hear the song once in a while, like you hear a Beatle's tune once in a while today.  Anyhoo...


Violets are ubiquitous on my lawn this time of year.  But I don't mind.  Maybe some people enjoy a monoculture of grass reaching out in all directions, but I enjoy looking down and seeing a little wild garden in blue here and there.  Makes me want to get down and crawl around...
