They stood there and pondered the meaning of such a cruel manner or death. Why would they use us to promote such a wicked act of punishment on anyone? In the Spring of our life, we bud, and bring life, and color to the world around us, and yet they take us, and form us into a tool of such a wicked death, an end to life. But then it made sense. Though these crosses were meant to bring an end to life, in the end the cross in the center brought about new life. I also want to use this photo as a tribute to all the victims of the Boston explosion. Our prayers are lifted up for all those touched by this horrible act of wickedness.
