Pursuing gold tears
I promised to collect gold tears of a rose before dawn broke, but I was too late. Before my eyes opened from sleep the petals of the flower had already become the sun. I will spend the day trailing after its shadow.
Princess, thank you for this wonderful visual experience. Your blog is an oasis of peace and beauty. I'm glad to be here (we have Peter to thank for the link).
there is nothing like a drop of dew on a rose petal-- your post makes me want to watch the sunrise and the collect the tears...very delicate, sweet tears.
On the photograph at the top, you managed well having a neat background and the rose at the front neat too. It's very difficult to do. I do like all your flowers pictures...
