The Flowers

This morning Lois and I were ordering breakfast in Panero's, when a young man in a wheel chair and holding a large bouquet of flowers in his lap got in line. As we were eating, we saw him opening the door to his vehicle parked in the handicapped space, when a young woman wearing an apron came running out with flowers in hand and tearfully embraced him. After smiles, hugs and kisses, she returned to work, flowers in hand. Using his strong upper body, he lifted himself into the driver's seat and slowly dismantled his wheel chair putting each piece on the seat next to him. When his labors were done, he backed up and drove away.
