The Art of Taking Care of Flowers - Part 1

//Plucked//

Cut the bottom of the stems
Softly
While breathing in the sweet scent when the knife touches the green

Remove the dried leaves


Pull out the dead petals
While listening to the rustling sound when your touch meets the green

Get the prettiest vase you can find
Fill it halfway with sparkling water
Put the flowers in
Gently
While looking at the beautiful vision when the vase meets the green

Stand in awe of the beauty
Feel the petals between your fingers
Switch the water everyday to preserve the magic
While smiling every time your gaze meets the colour.
