Roses

When i was little I'd go out and play almost everyday.
I wouldn't play with toys or board games or video games much.
Mostly I'd play all by myself.Mostly i would just look everywhere.Observe everything...touch whatever i could.
Pick up everything..rocks,grass,leaves,wild flowers,feathers,seeds...anything and everything was treasure...just stayed away from the bird shit and dog poo...i rummaged through everything in the radius I was allowed to play in.
Where i live has a lot of Deodar(Himalayan cedar) and pine trees...and I'd find pine cones and cedar roses.
I'd bring these gluey woody things home and keep them where i hid all the important things.They were usually thrown out during the spring cleaning (Maa used to hate them)...but i never got enough of them...they made me happy.
Girls love flowers and roses...i love cedar roses...coz if you take care of them they can last...forever.
