Pink Powderpuff


What a resplendent show of the feminine! These flowers scientifically known as the Calliandra surinamensis seem to burst forth in celebration of the soft, girly yet fierce qualities of nature. It does not hold back from expressing oneself. See how it radiates from a center outward in all directions. See how it seems to be illuminated from within, the light travelling to the outer tips like that in fiber optic cables.

And how I want to pick one, just one, to dust my cheek with.
