  4. There are few places sadder, to my way of thinking, than deserted gardens...and yet to the observant, there are still hidden charms and delicate fragrances...

  10. This gives me a sad feeling and a happy feeling. Sad because of the blossoms decomposing, but happy because of the fragrance.
    Nicely done, loved reading this one.

  11. For some reason, the second line is my favorite. I can almost picture those beautiful blossoms saying in that deserted garden.

    Great writing as usual!
