Lotus

Every year at the cusp of summer, the lotus rises from the muddy waters to reach the beauty of perfection. A sea of pink flowers adds a vibrant splash of color to the soothing green of its leaves resting on lakes and creeks, inviting vagrant guests like songbirds, dragonflies, frogs and turtles. The lotus flower is a symbol of purity that stands above the surface of things, untouched by waves, wind and rain which may bend, but never break it.
