Beautiful. I want to be there - now.
Pink on pink on pink
Amazing spaces make me wonder
What I should create
Nice haiku, Jen! I love the idea of a Flower Festival. Can anyone identify the flowers?
How lovely and graceful! A beautiful moment of serenity… Thanks!
I can just imagine the peaceful feeling of looking at the lovely flowers and hearing the deep tones of the bell.
Beautiful in every way, I love the serenity, the blossoms and the slope of the roof.
