Rea, this piece is breathtaking. It captures the slow unfolding of life, love, and growth with such gentle intimacy. The imagery of plants and seasons mirrors the relationship beautifully, from the tentative beginnings on a fire escape to the rooted persistence of roses in a true garden. I love how the cycles of blooming, struggling, and enduring feel both fragile and eternal. Reading it left me with that quiet ache of hopefulness, like watching sunlight creep across a floor in late afternoon.ā„ļø
