La Vie En Rose

55 petals make up the Edith Piaf rose according to Meilland International. And so,... here is my attempt to see if my faux rose can look like the real one.
I think it is not perfect. It has similarities but... no, not perfect... only in the number of petals is it exact.
Music, it seems, holds a fascination equivalent to the beauty of roses. The voice of each is an enduring garden. At the height of WWII, Piaf wrote La Vie En Rose and that song endures.
La Vie En Rose can mean...
“Life in Shades of Pink”  
Looking at life through rose colored glasses
A rosy tint on life
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Ah, the pink roses that bloom in the spring… Magnifique!

And,maybe, if you string these translations together,, like a story, they portray how Edith Piaf looked at life.
