My Flower; Grown in a shallow pot from a bulb, this guy turned out okay. It fills the frame well,

Exquisite plant !

This flower is like unto a hymn that the plant sings loudly and joyfully unto the Creator in spring . The mood is like unto a hymn with no words except for allelujahs and loud yet sonorous syllables .

The orange-red color is like unto a fabric from some paper lantern in a warm festive dream perhaps dreamt in Ibiza or some Meditterranean hillside .

The visual texture is like somewhere between that of paper and of seafoam. One is reminded of a spiral helix from some sacred geometry in the arrangement of petals as it winds around the stem .
