What color will it be?

I’ve been waiting quite a while for this last lily to bloom.  I am eager to see what color it will be. I’m eager to behold its beauty in its fullness. My family has also joined in on the anticipation.

Every day, we (me and Kali) wake up wondering if today is the day. I get Bruno, take him outside, and peek around the corner only to find it hasn’t opened yet. 

I am disappointed, but the anticipation is still high, so I’m not hopelessly disappointed.

Tomorrow, it may bloom.
