The withering and dropping have started, and as the season steadily increases, so have the changes.
The bright colours of the flowers silently fade before the eventual downward plop.
The Earth awaits to embrace and absorb them once more.
A process of renewal carried out year after year since it began its mysterious wake-up time.
This year has been very stressful for all the inhabitants and soil of this precious land.
Let’s hope next year, when these beauties start to appear, we have a better, shared, and safer future planned.
