Lowly Violet

Dependable, predictable, common as can be…..

Violet ……rather undesired and certainly uninvited,

the lowly violet returns to the lawn each spring.

It is a pretty shade of purple though. For some reason they remind me of little purple butterflies.

My maternal grandparents had violets in a yard they lived in. I liked them growing right there in the grass. I also thought the bindweed flowers growing on a fence on my way to school were pretty. I let some violets grow in the yard, but not bindweed.

I see from your sidebar, you must be from Iowa.
