starburst colors dance
above stems tinted emerald
a joyous dahlia

You have projected a beautiful image in just three lines, Regina! Dahlias are real eye-catchers! ~ Hope you are keeping well; your absence has not gone unnoticed! Regards // paul

delightful dahlia's Regina! I love the jewelled colours of the flowers and used to grow them in my garden - sadly the bugs seemed to enjoy midnight feasts and ruined them:-( hugs Jan xx
