Simplicity is a Single Rose
This week's challenge at Inspiration Avenue is "simplicity." It's no secret that I love every flower on this good earth, but roses sit at the top of the list. It might be a bit of a cliche, but to me the essence of simplicity is a single rose. Here are a few images from my own garden. Such simple beauty!
