Floating Petals: Part 51

Returning from the rooftop greenhouse, I stepped onto the low wooden credenza beneath the window. In the lamplight, a shallow stoneware dish held dried jasmine blossoms beside a small ceramic saucer of clear water. I knelt beside the saucer, unclipped both hilts, and laid them flat against the grain. Taking three unbroken pale buds between my fingers, I placed them gently onto the water's surface one by one. The surface tension held them aloft. They drifted outward in slow, quiet arcs, settling into an even triangle that mirrored the dim ceiling above. I sat back on my heels, resting in the stillness. #Ashokahtano #Ashoka #StarWars #Kenner #ActionFigures @cataww234
