THE RIGHTS OF FLOWERS
*
1 Cloth flowers are less expensive
2. Cloth flowers do not fade
3 There are no fallen petals to sweep away
4. They do not trap insects as they
infold at sunset
5 They respect the rights of sentient
plants to avoid the pain of cutting
and the pain of theft
George Bernard Shaw said
"I love little children but I don't cut off
their heads and stick them in vases."
Sathya Sai Baba said: "Why pluck a flower
and hasten its death."
