I think I could study the rose endlessly. The construction is so intricate. Layer upon layer of velvet petals. All constructed the same way, yet no two are identical. The shape is constantly in motion. Only in this way can the rose go from tight bud to mature open bloom. Those petals that were once curled tightly inwards yield to the warm sunlight and allow themselves to soften and open so much that they begin to curl outwards. Over its lifespan every part of the petal has its turn to catch the sun's light.
