Almost every year, when I see fennel blooming, I have to make a certain picture.

It's never the same, and it's never yet been satisfactory.

In my mind is a song, A Thousand Stars Burst Open by Pale Saints. I hear it as an image, and try to make it.

This year, this is it.

It's not satisfactory, not what I imagine. Not what I hear.

Next year, I'll try again.
