weird in a good way

preposterous. that what magnolia buds and blossoms are. unnaturally large, out of proportion. wearing their fur coats over their tissue-paper then prom dresses. matter of fact, they look every bit as awkward as all the teenage girls in prom dresses i keep seeing right now. it’s 40 degrees outside, and i see them all lined up taking group photos in their impossibly thin dresses. awkward and splendid. like magnolia buds.
