And just like that our Christmas cactus decided it was time to bloom. At the foot of the steps on the east side of the deck, these distinctive leaves greeted the sun as it peeped over the horizon. Sunbathing in ultra-violet rays, lulled day after day until the first frost where it landed here at dresser top. Still facing East, vastly more indirectly and more ephemeral than its previous position from the grand star, yet still gloriously happy and oh my how elaborate each individual bloom is. Greetings starlets, you are inspirational with your graceful offering for every welcome sought at this entrance hall.
