All That Remains by

All That Remains

In my youth, I was adored.
I bathed in the compliments showered upon me.
My vibrant colours drew thoughts undreamt,
And I was loved for my fragrant scent.

Now with age, I am abhorred.
I fade in the scorn glowered upon me.
My withered frame draws open contempt
And I am reviled as my life is spent.

    Interesting & striking macro T – we forget that spent blooms can be equally as interesting or striking as fresh ones, especially in a macro shot. Well done. Cheers, S.

  • Cheers S! I just thought the poor thing still had a beauty all of it’s own!

    Makes for a fascinating shot Tony and I don’t know of anyone else who could have turned an ordinary object into a thing of beauty. Good one chum. Peter

  • Thanks Peter, I like to think there’s no such thing as ordinary – it’s just how you see it!

    Ok, I’ve just read the verse you composed for this flower – it’s incredible, amazing; perfectly balanced and suited. Nice one Cyril x

  • Thanks Cyril! You’re the first to notice (or at least comment upon it).
    How astute of you! Doo-doo-be-doo!
