I always feel bad and sometimes nostalgic when a beautiful rose declines in beauty, whithers...so I take pictures of the most beautiful stage of the flower, when that color is alive and inspiring...Great Haiku, Rick! Best, iolanda

This is so visual Rick, exactly like a dying rose. Thanks for my placement in your Rust Contest.
