2010-04-07T01:48:00.000-07:00

The stems of flowers are very delicate to handle. They are in fact so delicate that one often feels as if they will break down in your hands if not handled properly. But then stems do deserve to be handled in the most delicate and tender manner as they are the edifice on which the petals survive and the pollens thrive. The stem of the flower holds the flower together firmly and does not let it slip away anywhere. Not only do the flowers feel properly gripped but also they give a very warm sense of belonging to the one holding onto them. Flowers look at their enterprising and blooming best when the stem on which the petals are placed is robust and helps the user hang onto them firmly.

There are a lot of other attributes that make the stem of a flower quite an adorable attraction. The stem might be very slender and thin but it carries the flower very gracefully. Not only do the flowers flash their petals but also look very vibrant when the stem on which they are fixed is quite long and can be held properly without any hitches. The stem ensures that the petals stay where they originally are and do not get displaced anywhere else. The petals get a chance to thrive and grow because of the proper positioning of the stem and the blooming also happens only when the firmness of the petal is retained. Though delicate, the stem retains its position as the flag bearer of the petals.

Delicate stems though might be quite slender but still hold onto the flower as a whole just like the way the base of a building makes it stand rock solid. Whether they are connected to a lengthy branch of flowers or are plucked out one at a time, the stem of the flower ensures that the positioning and the dexterity in the flower remains the same despite any disconnect from the root. The colors of the flower also remain the same courtesy the fact that the stem keeps the essence of the flower fresh.

Handling the stem has to be done in the most delicate manner. The stem will never respond to your touch positively if you are not holding it appropriately and are mishandling it. It is naturally quite delicate and the creating and binding force behind it also expects mankind to hold onto it with equal tenderness.

Language of Flowers

Flowers speak in a very unique language. Theirs is the universal language of love, which everyone understands, which nobody feels tough to comprehend and whose understanding does not require an interpreter. This universally accepted language of flowers is perhaps the commonality that binds people across the world and despite them speaking different dialects and not understanding even a single word of the language in which the other speaks, they are able to communicate well. Perhaps, flowers as the best and most efficient mediators are the ones that establish the language of peace and serenity that one often strives hard to establish to look forward a more cohesive and amicable world.

Their innate ability to transcend geographical boundaries and traverse religious barriers is testimony to the fact that their qualities are the ones that only the chosen one is blessed with.

Whenever rifts arose, flowers were always there to play the pacifier and bring the situation under control. Flowers know how to gauge th mood and also know ways in which people need to be seduced. Yes, they seduce people into following peace and love and never ever do they let somebody down in that aspect.

Flowers have always been silent. They have always listened to the world talking about them and often cynics criticizing their existence. Never ever have they spoken even a single word and their silence has been heralded and lauded by millions of flower admirers. Their silent demeanour has not only enabled mankind make friends but has also allowed man to venture into uncharted territories. Flowers have been testimony to almost every occasion celebrated on this planet and they have always wished people graciously without going over the top or exaggerating. They become a silent part of noisy celebrations where the whole room or the hall is screeching with laughter and other forms of cacophony. They never ever desert that occasion and even in their absence, they end up becoming a part of the folklore.

It can be said quite unarguably that flowers talk in the most satisfactory and pleasant voice in this world and still one can say well that flowers do not talk at all. It is this diffidence to talk that makes people more intrigued about flowers and the resonance of their silent conversations again leaves people gasping for more. Flowers have never raised their voices against anybody shouting or yelling at them and have always been patient listeners with mystical levels of endurance. In a world where every action or reaction comes with a certain chance of retaliation, flowers have been the silent harmless observers who have never really troubled anyone. In the end, it would be appropriate to say that flowers speak the most wonderful and understandable language in the world, the language of love, the language of affection.
