brief comment

In a picture postcard, a vivid blossom of camellia unfolds, capturing the essence of nature’s beauty frozen in time.

As I held this one in my hands, inspiration sparked within me, compelling a into the creation and expression by the stroke of a calligrapher’s brush.

Then a collaboration of picture and “haiku” poem started. For this purpose, a “haiku” poem comparing the blossom with the moon was chosen.

Would my attempt go well?
