    lily

    li + ly (both pronounced separately”

    the two “lies” refer to the two syllables phonetically

    lillies are a symbol of innocence

    Lily? If you break up the two syllables you’ll have ‘li’ and ‘ly’, both of which sound like the word ‘lie’.

    How about “lily?” Love the gorgeous photo, by the way. (Glad I didn’t find an obnoxious red dot lurking about! Ha!)

    Snowhite?

    A lie of snow
    A white lie

    Whether snowhite was innocent is another question!

    The most logical answer seems to be “Lily” due to the hint, but what about “serpent”, In Genesis 3:1 & 4 the first statement out of the serpent’s mouth was a deceitful trick to get the innocent and pure Eve to trust him, the second statement was an outright lie, and because of this Eve believed and ate, losing her innocents. The serpent can be an emblem of innocents, lost.

    that’s also an interesting answer, seanRhoades.
