Japanese Garden (first revision)
Bow-shaped bridge
red pebble path
water reflects
ripples dance Still too much water.
couples unite
aubergine and lime
Moist moss under foot Well done - sensuous appeal
Bamboo shadows keeping time Well done - the reference to time
Maples delicate branches thick Could be two lines, up to you, obviously matter of taste.
Lilies strong as rocks surround
Japanese garden No need to say that it is a japanese garden. We know that from the start. But better than the original attempt.
Thistles.
