    Aha! How wonderful! I love L2...it makes me feel that this is happening right now, sort of, "in the moment". Genielassie's comment helped me understand this better. Thanks, Genielassie! I love the imagery here

    That is exactly what the hollyhocks here look like they are doing. So tall are they that they tower over everything, including me and my children. It is as if they are trying to touch the sun!
