Ce devrait être l'inverse. Lorsque j'étais enfant, comme beaucoup d'enfant nous aimons découvrir et je me souviens que je prenais du plaisir à entrouvrir les boutons des fleurs de coquelicot sans les cueillir. Très délicatement je déployais leurs pétales froissés. Leurs couleurs étaient très pastelles. Est-ce la lumière ou le soleil qui leur apporte leur belle couleur rouge ou simplement la maturité ?... car après tout je tentais de les faire naître prématurément...<br />J'aime vos merveilleux coquelicots qui me ramènent à mon enfance. Ils sont d'une grande délicatesse et semblent nous charmer.<br />Vos nuances de verts autour d'eux sont renversants et se marient à merveille.<br />Gros bisous.martinealisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04055152925986659065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3940063045936728398.post-16492342848858012922012-07-16T17:08:19.426-07:002012-07-16T17:08:19.426-07:00Beauitufl!!
