'Death come quickly' is an interesting name. Today's proper grammar would demand it to be 'Death comes quickly'. Maybe it is a result of traditional names being at ease with grammar or it is a result of old grammar being used. But then it would go like 'Death cometh quickly'. Or maybe the meaning is 'Death, come quickly!'? Or not :)
And now I am pondering the grammar I used in this post :D
Let's see whether @cleverbot is still clever :)
Old enough :)
November is my month ... :) . And the flower is beautifully delicate :)

November Rain is always unpredictable.
November Flowers are always capricious, lone and late . 😎😊

How poignant :).
Your photos have a hidden X-factor . Cool !! :)
Very nice photo :)
Your lucky to find something in bloom in this time of year :)
Well in my country that is :)
Thank you. It's nice you noticed.

@leoplaw & @photo-deja-vu - Mystery of "Death, come quickly" & "Death comes quickly" is as follows :) - It is derived from a story of theft of a (fictional) painting of a woman with this flower, by a (real) Mexican artist, María Izquierdo. Chapter Six: The painting was titled "DEATH COME QUICKLY" .
