At first glance, a simple meadow of flowers,
Extending an invitation to be admired.
Although, after closer inspection one realizes
That they may be more unpredictable,
Causing one to experience
Second thoughts about picking them,
For fear of being bitten.
Great beauty often is an indication of great danger.

I am exploring the subtle shift from beauty to danger in this idyllic landscape, charged with underlying menace
