Excellent a 100 word Easter story The Gardener by RodG

"No, your daughter said you'd likely be outside on this lovely Easter." "So much coming up, Dear, I had to take a peek. That long-haired man with a beard identified every plant for me. A gardener, I think. He has a soft smile much like yours, but his soil-crusted hands are so scarred." I looked around the small flower-filled courtyard, but saw no one.
