The Weight of the Petals

1. Begin by describing a character standing before a vibrant, overwhelming display of color that feels almost too loud to look at. Focus on one specific physical sensation, such as the smell of damp wood after a heavy rain or the way a bright light makes their eyes ache. 2.

Write about this person taking a slow walk into the center of the color until they can no longer see the path they used to be on. Let them find a small, unexpected object abandoned in the dirt—something like a rusted key or a discarded ribbon—that changes their understanding of where they are.
