History of the Lady Slipper Flower (source: newengland.com)
Native American folklore tells the story of a young maiden who ran barefoot in the snow in search of medicine to save her tribe, but was found collapsed on the way back from her mission with swollen, frozen feet. As a result, beautiful lady slipper flowers then grew where her feet had been as a reminder of her bravery. In addition to inspiring folklore, lady slipper roots were also widely used by Native Americans as medicinal herbs.

Theres always cracks
A crack of sunlight
A crack in the mirror
Or on your lips
It’s the morning on a sunset Friday
When all conversations twist

I thought I knew what they were, but I wouldn't have got the name in 100 years, even though I know I've taken a photo of a similar flower!
