"What I really want to be is... a tiny yellow flower hidden in a vast deep wood; a precious ointment shimmering in an alabaster box, poured out on the feet of Christ in love. "
Yellow trout lily, Erythronium americanum. It blooms in the woodland in mid-spring.

"A woman in that town who lived a sinful lifelearned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house,so she came there with an alabaster jar of perfume.As she stood behind him at his feet weeping,she began to wet his feet with her tears.Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them."~Luke 7:37-38
