Pressed Flowers

Flowers were

Pressed by Mom in books

When I was a little girl

Dreaming . . .



Mostly violets and

bright pure yellow buttercups

I remember clearly

How magical it was that flowers

Lived forever . . .


Their petals and love

Awake in books

Held safe in wax paper

While some fell loose . . .



Moms heart

Captured the simplicity of flowers

Pressed and dreaming

Reality . . .

 

Pressing flowers is magical.

 

If this has piqued your interest, here is a BLOG on how to press flowers.

What an excellent post. We did this all the time as kids with our grandmother. We had so much fun! Brings back such wonderful memories. Thank you for sharing.
