Six Word Fridays - Orange

My post for this blog hop is in memory of my Mother-in-law who loved the color orange.  I'm linking my post to Adrienne's Six Word Fridays - Orange.  In this post each line only has six words.

Oh, to plant some orange renunculuses

Orange was everywhere in their home,

curtains and potholders with orange trim,

pillows with orange and brown fringe,

and colorful afghans that matched them.

She wished she could grow flowers

that could stand the winter cold

perhaps some orange ranunculuses, but they

required warmer climate she was told.

Instead she planted what would survive

making sure as much she could

there would be some bright blossoms

alongside their house of stained wood.
