Cold dark grey clouds roll in
The strong wind brushes through shaking the rough twigs
There sits atop a delicate bloom so soft and white like pure silk ribbon
Within tall yellow sentinels stand bright and proud peering out in contrast to the dull sky
The camellia
Oh, I like this so much. Excellent reply to the prompt, excellent photo as well.

Thanks Claudette, that means a lot coming from you.. I didn’t do the dialogue but it didn’t fit with the photograph so left it out.

It was “just right” for the picture. Sometimes knowing what to leave out is more important than putting something in

“bright and proud” vs. “dull”. I like it. Beautiful picture of the flower too!
