As I wrote on tiny words twitter account, this reminds me of Karen's time working in Amsterdam where after an incredibly long day in a small windowless TV editing room, she couldn't wait to smell the freshness of flowers at the Bloemenmarkt, the world's only floating flower.
We forget how vital flowers are, and I can imagine the kiosk as either a pleasant surprise, or a regular stop. Wonderful!
Oh, how wonderful. I have often thought, when I'm walking in the city, that I would love to spend a day at one of the outdoor flower markets, taking photographs and writing poems. Marianne, your haiku has brought deep and abiding joy!

Marianne.
Lovely.
Though I’m alergic to pollinated flowers, for a moment I took a deep breath with you.

the flower market in downtown Amsterdam is as beautiful as it is fragrant; thanks for invoking lovely memories; from your neighbour in Guelph
