Brown leaves caught in a tangle of drying flowers signal October as surely as pumpkins on porches and crisp autumn air.

These pesky little flowers are taking over my yard. I had to build a patio over one patch of ground they’d infested. It was the only way to get rid of them. They are sorta pretty closeup and much enlarged, but still, a pest is a pest.
On the front desk in my tax accountant’s office today, I saw something that plummeted me back to my mother’s borders between the house and the sidewalk that ran from our front to back yard: this bouquet which included several sweet William flowers–also known as carnation pinks.
