These
stiffening leaf ribs lean oddly like tilting sand castles on
a slanted beach. Their stretching veins reach earnestly into
a quivering baby's breath sky. Photosynthesis is at work here
as sunlight and water find their magical patterned pathways
through the leaves. You can almost hear the nutrients gushing
deep within these sparkling fans of light.
