Ariella raised her hand. Even though everyone was saying the same thing, she still wanted some points. "Like said, it's a morning glory, which is a flower that blooms in the morning and closes up by the late-afternoon to evening. It is a symbol of pure love, of affection, and of mortality."
She took a pause to think. She remembered her mother telling her about the Chinese folklore meaning of the morning glory. Was it the day that lovers would meet? She thought she might as well take the shot. "From the Chinese folklore meaning, the flowers represent the day for lovers to meet. The flower also represents the month of September and the eleventh wedding anniversaries." |
