blossoming rapeseeds -
small wrinkles
at the corner of her eyes
***
colzas en fleur -
de petites rides
au coin de ses yeux
Colzas and wrinkles, good juxtaposing.

Well, I feel stupid, but I'm not sure I know what colzas are. Are they similar to rapeseed?

Pretty much the same, I believe, Aurora.

Yes Aurora, I've found the translation : colza is rape : a bright yellow flower Thank you
