Friday Fictioneers – Make Magic Happen

Granny’s greenhouse is in the distance and beyond the red barn.

She grew roses in every color. When you entered her cozy cottage, the sweet scent of roses was always in the air. 

Her final resting place will be the rose garden. 

She’d say, “Where else would I want to be?” 

Roses create beautiful paintings when gathered and placed in a crystal vase—Mother Nature’s floral paintings.

The funeral was the way granny wanted.

I  place the urn on a high shelf in the greenhouse.

I’m sure she’s looking down and saying, “Pick radiant, colorful blooms and make magic happen.”

The funeral was exactly the way my grandmother wanted.

She pre-paid and planned it all before she died.

Always the forward-thinking woman, no one would be able to leave any details out.

The rose garden was to be her final resting place.

She’d say, “Where else would I want to be? These roses have helped me create beautiful paintings that will live on in the homes of many long after I’m gone.”

Her garden was magical. She could grow colorful varieties.

I’m sure she’s looking down at us and saying, “Pick up a paintbrush and make magic happen.”
