What is a rose by any other name?
Would that the answer startle you?
The pink folds,
The spreading out,
As though awaiting pleasure sent.
Eventually closing around itself
It has served its purpose,
Given passion to those who claimed her,
Now it is the time to move on gracefully.

Loved the inner and outer beauty...and the moments that linger long.

Beautifully captured JP...

You took something old and made it new again.
Well done! ...or maybe in this case, Sweet!
