Spring rain on a rosebud in the gardens at the Carmel Mission in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California
The sepal tips come together, reminding me of the Boticelli painting of the Three Graces in "La Primavera"
In Greek mythology, the "Charites" are goddesses protecting and promoting joy and happiness
We know them as the Three Graces:
Aglala -Splendor
Euphrosyne - Merriment and pleasant state of mind
Thalia - Blooming life
