Along with the traditional Christmas tree, poinsettias, with their large and showy leaves, are a staple of the holidays. Indeed, when visiting friends or going to holiday parties, the choice gift to bring the hostess is a pretty poinsettia plant in full bloom.

This season Idaho painter Maria Ryan has created a different kind of poinsettia as a gift… which is accompanied by this short verse: “Somehow not only at Christmas but all the long year through… the joy that you give to others is the joy that comes back to you.”
