You know, where I live, they used to call irises "sabre-flower". Thanks for the drabble!

My irises aren't due out for a few more weeks. I wonder if they are the classic iris or the Siberian iris, which like to have their feet wet?

On a more serious note, Tolkien would have approved, having buried most of his friends beneath the fields of France.

I've never heard of an iris being called a flag before (they were just irises to me Cool smiley face ), so when I first read this I will admit I didn't get it, but having read the A/N it makes sense now, and I like the point of it. Reminds me a little of 'The Soldier' by Rupert Brooke, so to agree with Haleth, I think Tolkien would have approved of the sentiment in this. Very Happy smiley face

i love all varieties of Irises...I remember my Grandmother called them Flags.
This puts me in mind of the 60s song 'Where Have All The Flowers Gone?'
Very well done

This is wonderful proof that a story does not have to be long to tell a good story.
