Hello Lea,
what a glorious lavender tulip tree you have offered us here and yes it does look like a chalice, a grail for anyone seeking that sacred shape that seems to appear so often in nature. I wanted you to know that I went to visit the labyrinth after you wrote to me. It was a wonderful experience. I am working on my thesis and it is going well. I shall go for another visit I think. Thank you!
xo,
Noelle
Beautiful words for the pic.
This is indeed a beautiful tree. I will forever remember the idea of each blossom being a chalice. When I think about it, many flowers are, tulips certainly mimic a chalice. I love the haiku. Nice job!
Peace
Beautiful picture!! Spring is just around the corner and even though my winter experience here in Indiana has not be as cold and miserable as it has been in years past, Spring is still inviting! Wonderful haiku! Thank you!
Wonderful haiku for a beautiful photo ~ namaste, carol (A Creative Harbor)
Oh my... you have them blooming yet! In a month or so, I will enjoy these wonderful flowers too... they already have small buds... your photo and haiku make me look forward to it even more!
Your glorious haiku makes me feel the warmth of spring and the hope that all is possible. I really loved it in every way! Thank you!

What a beautiful metaphor...
Tulip blooms as chalices.
Tulip trees have to be one of my favorite things.

Ah, the tulip tree at Malaga Cove Library in Palos Verdes is also blooming and I got to take photos of it last week. Thanks for sharing your tree and words.
