My 07/17/26 postcard is a coneflower I found down the block. Its bright petals have curled with age, leaving behind graceful lines and rich textures. The petals aren’t random. They curve and fold in ways that feel almost like a dancer’s hands or flowing fabric. Nature isn’t deteriorating into disorder—it’s rearranging itself into a different kind of beauty.
