Oh, my, oh, my! Star, this was *wonderful*! Like Theresa, I have this big grin on my face! :) You've made me feel much better!

I'm very happy that the Challenge inspired you, and so did "Beautiful Diamond"! *sigh* Clark makes *such* a lovely Sleeping Beauty, doesn't he? ;)

I *love* the Language of Love in flowers. It's a time-honored way of expressing love and worked so well here. People have used it for centuries, and I know the Victorians loved to use the language.

The story was very atmospheric, too, with the rain at the beginning and then all the flowers. *sniffs perfume of flowers*

I am still grinning at the last line. :)
