Life’s simple pleasures. A brilliant green Taro leaf against the blue sky. A moment captured in a photograph.
A place where you could enjoy, relax and just admire the beauty of nature.
I never had this in my garden. Took this shot during one of our visits to Manila Seedling Bank. I miss that place.
Oh dear! Pasko na?! Love it, Arlene! Nice poem 🙂

I often hear Christmas carols being played on the radio. Nostalgic, isn’t it?
