It's been one of my favourite moments to feel for the soft petals of the divine flower..Been one of those great things to inspire me to write imperfect yet self satisfying Nature Poems..Very Beautiful work indeed.

Dear Harshita, I am left breathless and appreciative for the poetic beauty of your deep and insightful comments. Indeed, our words create pale imperfect portraits in comparison to the rich vibrant masterpiece of Nature - but we honor Her perfect artistry with every attempt of our pens to capture Her essence. Your presence is thrilling, my friend, thank you for your sharing enlightened thoughts with me. Warmest wishes.. ~Susan
