Scarlet Awakening

“Scarlet Awakening” captures the delicate beauty of a flower stirring to life just outside my bedroom window. Each morning, I’m fascinated by the quiet ritual of flowers “waking up,” their petals unfurling slowly, like a gentle stretch at dawn. This bloom, with its deep, velvety red petals, was caught in that fleeting moment of awakening, as if gently coaxed by the first light of day. The soft layers of scarlet, unfolding with purpose, seem to mirror the start of a new day, reminding me of nature’s rhythm and the quiet elegance of life emerging from rest.
