It looks as if it has been opened but... it also looks to my rather untutored and fanciful eye like the Goddess opening herself to welcome, um, visitors. I shall say no more other than, having thanked Her for the rain that had just started to fall that day, I kissed an amusingly placed tussock of grass. Ten days later and it has only just stopped raining.
