Salmon,
Where pink slides into orange,
Or is it orange slowly sliding up towards pink?
Softest of colors, salmon;
When it tints the sky at sunset.
When it whispers along the edges of a daffodil’s corona.
When it blooms into the petals of a rose.
A soft ice cream color,
A color for bridesmaids, and cashmere cardigans.
A color which whispers,
Inviting you to relax,
To lighten up a little,
And to walk more gently on the Earth.
Salmon

Very nice! I love the daffodils and the extensive variety of images exploring the ‘salmon’ hues.
Thank you 😉 Thank you for visiting Forest Garden, and for all of your “likes”. Best wishes, WG
Great pictures as usual! I can’t believe you have roses already! wow 🙂
Oh Michael, we have buds, but no roses. The rose photo was from last summer. All of the others were taken within the last few days. Thank you for the kind words, WG
