This is my contribution to Frank Jansen’s “Dutch goes the Photo,” challenge.
The theme for this week is tranquil, which is perfect for this time of year.
I spent this past Sunday taking pictures of the roses in my garden and editing them for a book of poetry that I am working on. A rose for every poem.
A Haiku
Time passes tranquil
Being with hues red and gold
Heart blossoms unfold
My attempt in French
le temps passe tranquillement
dans des nuances rouge et or
le coeur des fleurs se dévoile
Edit – Nicole Pottier helped with with the French version.
Beautiful photos! The yellow rose is especially beautiful~

So pretty. I love the different effects. My favorites are the vermillions and oranges and two-toned bloom, but honestly, they’re all amazing. Beautiful haiku. Good luck with your book. ❤
