flowers
image description
Drawings of severeral people interacting with flowers in some way.
- The first coughs up rue: regret, sorrow, repentance
- The second cries lamprocapnos: rejected/passionate/unrequited love
- The third is showered and decorated in laurel: ambition, success, renown
- The fourth is untouched by a halo of baby’s breath: innocence, purity of heart
- The fifth sniffs a single daffodil: chivalry, respect, new beginnings
- The sixth observes a black dahlia: betrayal, dishonesty
- The seventh tends to diphylleia: I will show my true self to you, clarity, honesty
- The eighth contemplates, face partially covered by yellow carnation: rejection, disdain, disappointment
- A ninth exhales a smoke of asphodel: my regrets follow you to the grave. (The petals float up, intermingling with rue.)
