Diamonds
The lupin has leaves that have veins that all meet in the center, right where the leaf sits on the stem. This forms a little depression, like a little cup. After a rain, or the early morning dew, water collects in this little place and it sparkles there just like diamond. Because of the way the veins meet at the center, the water drop that's trapped there even takes the shape of a diamond. I love to see these diamonds sparkling in the lupin leaves. This morning the lupin leaves are sporting their precious diamonds and I got to see them again.
