The Peonies... part 2

I've been on vacation.
We came back to what seems like a whole new land... green grass & leaves everywhere. Flowers sprouting up. Our garden in full swing.
It seems that Summer has arrived.
But nothing captures my attention quite like the peonies. 
Although they are long gone... I remember to enjoy these hot summer days, these rain showers, these garden goodness meals. Because.... much like the peonies. Things just don't last as long as you think they will. And when they are gone... you see the beauty that was there the whole time.
