Fruits and Flowers

W. Somerset Maugham was ill towards his last days. One of his fans called him and asked, "Mr. Maugham, sir, how can I help you? Shall I send some flowers and fruits?".

"Thank you very much madam, but you couldn't possibly help. It is too late for fruits, and too early for flowers!", came W. S. M.'s reply.
