Purple Traces in the Grass

in Photography Lovers7 days ago


On a humid morning, with dew still clinging shyly to the tips of leaves, I walked along a hidden path behind an old garden. There was nothing special about the place just bushes, weeds, and red soil wet from last night's rain. But as usual, I brought my cellphone camera, hoping for a small miracle to capture.

And sure enough, my eyes fell on something almost invisible a small, light purple flower growing alone in the middle of the grass. Its petals were thin, almost transparent, but they bloomed gracefully as if welcoming the morning. Among the rough leaves and barren soil, the flower stood quietly, not asking for attention, but able to captivate anyone who was patient enough to look.

I approached slowly, afraid that my own shadow would make it wilt. I raised my camera, and in a few shots, I managed to capture it a small, nameless, yet meaningful, reed flower.

Perhaps, the flower was just one of thousands that grew wild without ever being noticed. But for me, it became a symbol of steadfastness and beauty that does not need to be flaunted. It grows, not to be admired, but because that is what it knows: to survive, bloom, and give color, even if only to itself.

That day, I went home with a small smile. Not because I found something rare, but because among the bustling bushes and the world that never stops running, I found a beautiful silence in the form of a flower.
