Bluebonnets naturally grow only in Texas
Imagine my surprise when I found one in Puerto Rico
Plucked from its native land and displayed prominently
Springtime means fields of blue lining the roadways
Family photos and inspiring landscapes
A unique and annual rite
Among a sea of decorative plates
From places near and far
The humble bluebonnet stands out
I pluck it from the wall
Generally a forbidden act
Condoned by the owner
“Take it,” Sylvia says
“It’s fate”
“It should be with a Texan”
A journey of destiny
A flower returned its native land.
