Easter Lily For St Marks Patient Inspires Guardian Angles
Maysie Munro runs a small florist shop on West Bridge and Main. A poor waif Dollie Flint asks for a Easter posey for a sick old lady at St Mark's and Maysie repurposes a cornflower blue gown and flowers to make a child’s Easter dress. Dollie delivers a lily to a hospital patient who learns the giver is Maysie and a guardian angel, and a nurse notes the man’s Easter longing. The two children visit the patient and a final line ties the scene to faith and hope as Easter joy spreads.
