DROPDAY!

My anemone plant has some flowers that are definitively gone, the seed head bold. one flower that blooms now for quite a long time and there are still several buds but I am not sure they will develop further.
I like the colour of the flower and I kneeled down several times to catch the drops in the morning.
A grey, dark day, in the afternoon pouring rain. We had a lot to do still and are glad that this evening we are invited by our very nice neighbours.

My haiku:

Flower in colour
Enveloped tears many of
Autumnal tristesse

And the proverb from Shakespeare:

Women's weapons, water-drops.

Remember it is the end of the sixteenth century.
