I usually post more than one poinsettia during the holiday season - so this year for first one I chose an old favorite. This is called Jingle Bells and has become enormously popular thru the years.
Kathy, to me the poinsettia's are the floral harbingers of the Christmas season. In fact, the above line is incorrect, because the flowers of this plant play a subordinate role. It is the festively colored leaves that do it. Your beautiful photograph is an excellent example of that.
If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins!

Its a poinsettia time of the year, and I am sure the years are getting shorter. However, I never fail to be delighted by these plants and this is a lovely one :)
My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
