The Legend of the Secret Flowers is a true story that took place in Memphis, Tennessee, once upon a time.It was just an ordinary day when Mama decided that the time was right to plant her bulbs in the garden. As with every other day, Mama enlisted the help of her four-year-old son to become her "special helper," as she called him. This was no average assignment, but it was one that was to be esteemed and, of course, always followed by the reward of a delicious snack coupled with quality time.By virtue of the hidden nature of freshly planted bulbs, Mama's special helper could not grasp why he could not see the flowers after all of his striving to bury the bulbs. It was then that Mama created the mystique of the secret flowers and told the boy how they were becoming something new in God's rich soil.The Legend of the Secret Flowers became a teaching tool that reinforced several simple scriptural precepts, specifically the notion that God is always working on us, even when we cannot see the outcome. The boy grew taller but departed neither from the legend nor the lessons of the secret flowers that his mama told to him that one ordinary day. And Mama hid deep in her heart all the words God gave her as well. She remembered those secret flowers and the day with the four-year-old boy for many years to come but most especially in springtime when the flowers were in bloom.
