  1. Such a stunning image. The words at the bottom are Russian for peony. Breathtaking haiku. I had peonies once but they kept flopping over because the buds were so heavy. I have not a green thumb.

  2. I like the way you choose your way with these Tarot prompts. Surprisingly different than what I had in mind as I started to prepare this prompt-list on Tarot.
    Thank you for this wonderful haiku on The Empress of the flowers The Peony.

  3. What an amazing take on the empress.. while most of us are sticking to the concept of tarot.. you took a different route all together which is commendable!
