There aren't many flowers in our gardens in autumn, but we some people are fortunate. They have Michaelmas daisies. My mother used to grow Michaelmas daisies, masses of little purple flowers. When was Michaelmas? Close to the autumn equinox. It was a time to say "farewell" to the summer. You give Michaelmas daisies to say "goodbye". Another name for the flower is "goodbye Summer". Who is Michael? He's an archangel, one of the archangels mentioned in the Holy Bible. (He has wings.) He's a warrior saint, who vanquished Satan, the evil angel, and the fallen angels. People were afraid of the dark nights. They wanted Michael to protect them from evil. As the nights got longer they called to Michael. So, we have Michaelmas.
