Colourful Reflections

Hibiscus

 

Haiku 60

Reflecting upon

Your secret inner nature

Colour your thoughts peach

.

 

My hibiscus is the plant that just keeps on giving. Most of the year there are blooms all over it.

Even though it is mid-winter here in Cape Town it still produces lovely flowers. Also I find that the weaker yellow light of winter, striking the flowers at a more oblique angle, enhances the peachy colour even more.

Here I found one bloom with its head turned towards the wall. Its colour was reflected back in its shadow.
