I Wish You Could: Plumeria (Frangipani)
I wish you could see the Plumeria flowers here. They're also called Frangipani, which I like more, maybe because it seems the least popular of the names. I pick it like I pick the ripest banana from the bowl. Because I assume others won't, and because I love making banana bread, anyway. The Frangipani's soft petals, rounded and white like beluga fins, are cinched together at the base by a yellow as bright as the beginning. It's what your teacher tried to get you to do in art
