  • Title: Falling Lilac Petals
  • Artist: Mindset
  • Description:

    Softly the blossoms
    Tumble from the highest tree
    As time passes on

    Lilac petals fall
    Yet memory still remains
    And my heart abides.


    (An avatar for the 25th of May, Wear The Lilac Day for Alzheimer's awareness. Part of a LoEA guild group entry - please click the "loealilac" tag to see others and show your support. And yes, the first part of the haiku was inspired by the one in Good Omens. ☺)

  • @xxlgirlxx: Thanks, appreciated! Though "not that awesome" has a bit of a point -- when I decided to use the wig and the obi, I knew that the wig was more of a pink-purple and the obi more of a blue-purple. Since different hues bother me too, I decided to go with a "rule of two" and add another blue-purple (the parasol), another pink-purple (the petals), and even it out with a light neutral purple (the blossoms). The blend didn't work for this person, but I'm happy with it anyway. smile
