Red and black are a classic combination I think - even if you don't support a certain football club

Nice tulips. Did they come from Amsterdam?

Effective haiku to go with an equally effective photograph. I like!

Indeed    ...but with the additional threat of poison.

Like something from a fairy tale perhaps - the princess is offered a beautiful yet sinister tulip flower full of sleeping potion   In fact it would work better than the apple in Snow White!

As you will see in the first comments the scary definition won out before the 'romantic' song lyrics. Glad you appreciated the haiku by Jordan Harris. I did like the edge it gave to a simple flower shot

I was walking by a front garden, the sun was just catching them and made them stand out like a coloured beacon against the shadowy background. Camera in hand I just stopped to get the result you see above.
