What she needs, my love
A jar of coloured petals
That smile to her mind--
heliconia is always a nice welcome
or an orchid that’s bright
never a bottle of wine
just a cool towel and a cup of lemongrass tea next to a carnation
Eyes to Mind
Tag: orchids
Good Morning
from a stem of orchids protruding through the balcony trellis
to those starting their weekend
I’m Yours
Your heart, Beloved,
Is yours. We though share one soul
Bonding us for good.
I send love to your heart while
The soul hugs us forever.
everything looks beautiful when seen with love
this is one of 6 stems of orchids celebrating life before they dry out some time later, reminding me to keep sharing love and compassion until my existence changes dimension
thank you, dear orchids
Hi, Pretty!
Hi
Pretty!
Your timing is mine.
You greet me when I've lost hope
That you're still excited to bloom.
Life is mysteriously turning
Hopelessness to light steps
To what's called
Keep going.
she paused her blossom after some time moving to the balcony — the shower area didn’t offer enough sun by then
just this afternoon when checking the leaves, i found her flowers❣️ you never give up, dear orchid
thank you!
blessing is for those not quitting
❣️
Decorated
Are we decorated
By life?
Or is life decorated
By us?
—
a lobby well decorated
Scattered
I'm foraging beauty
On my way to work,
To shop,
To travel,
To eat out;
And
On my way to kitchen,
To balcony,
To a room,
To the loo.
Beauty is just scattered by
You.

white, yellow, fragrant, pretty, soon to dry then to produce seed for another orchid to bloom 💕
blooming time for the pigeon orchids along the Yio Chu Kang Road next to my office – this appearance can be seen in almost all of the big trees around this road
Beauty
Among petit rain
Bright colours start a new day.
Beauty knows her way.

Home
A home, Beloved,
Where orchids bloom silently
Giving a surprise.
——
can you see a long spike there? how didn’t I see it before my trip? it should have been around for around 2-3 weeks 😍
a bud! 💕
Nodding Orchids
Those nodding orchids
Complying with breeze flow hum,
Dance then fly away.
——
life is just like that ♥️
found the ID: Brassavola Great Egret
the other one finally bloomed yesterday, both dancing together since then
the slowest to bloom among the gang yet the most gracefully dancing
Love ‘Coz It’s Time
There’s a crook
I can’t understand.
It is when I saw
You in silence
And said in heart
“I find no reason in
You for me to love but
What is this emotion?”
There’s another
I can understand.
It is when I felt
A warm summer
And said in heart
“There’s enough reason to love
You in silence
That forever blooms.”
No reason is needed to love
For love is blind.
Yet there’s reason to keep the love
For love is the only kind.
It’s time
When it’s time.
——
my orchids after one week left home alone
welcome! my orchids have taught me that flowers bloom when it’s time; not to be seen, not to be picked, not to be admired; they’re blooming simply to bloom — there’s only one reason to understand: it’s time
what is her ID? unknown and still beautifully blooming
with a line of my white shirts hanging as the background, this oncidium is gonna be yellow
another stem of oncidium waiting for its timing to greet me with yellow
dendrobium peeps again — thank you
dendrobium from the same cluster in the same pot that keeps greeting me with health and happiness
All in Store
After a long pause,
Waves of time now delivers
Pretty joy in store.
How should she welcome
A guest that greets with surprise?
A sweet smile in store—
——
buds of secundum are welcoming with joy
Surprisingly Survives
Surprise!
Said she
Showing the hopeless
That
Survival is about adaptability
Welcomed by nature,
Approved by resolution,
Driven by muscles,
Enjoyed by senses.
I’m gonna be yellow!
—-
can you see the spike of oncidium (must be yellow) at the left? i saw it when sitting on the toilet enjoying my good time 😀— suddenly the beauty struck me! 😍 thank you! 🙏🏼 i’ll be patient waiting for you to bloom 💛
she used to be one of balcony gang members and was about to pass as the original media (wood bark and charcoal) started decaying; her new home is now shower room in a glass flower vase; media is sponge, charcoal and water 😍
White Welcome
When home welcomes you
With unexpected colour,
Blessings are around.

Home again! 💝
Nice to say hi to orchids that I thought to be yellow but white instead!
thought yellow but white! pretty!
the second bloom after 3 years! thank you!
all are here! full team! 💝
Good Time
Growth is happening,
Vectors might turn to balance
Good time everywhere.

when i was away working, she was happy blooming 💝
and she has been preparing 💝
A Gift
What gift is not wrapped?
Blooming flowers in April.
Warm and colourful—
—-
she is sitting next to the shower so she is generously bathed twice a day
balcony gang 💝 watered once in three days plus some blessings from the rain
at the corner of the shower room, behind the glass door so she doesn’t bath too often 😎 but still blooming 💝
Sweet Surprises
Sweet surprises march
Silently following a season
Bringing colours to the sight.
Don’t hold breath,
They stay quite long
To give more space
For wow! and whoa!
—
I think I don’t give my orchids enough attention that I always see the bud rather late— only when they are long enough to stand out.
Sorry….
And thanks much! for giving me surprises after several years not blooming.
Salaam.
Corner
In a bright corner she’s seen. The sun sends her light reflecting bright life.

Sweetly Smile
Get home, sweetly smile seeing beauty greets softly. How are you, my love?
—
Flowers
There’s a gate open
Giving ways to a garden
Where buds greet sweetly.
—
Blooming
Continue blooming. Time brings seasons and moments unwrapping secrets.
—
The best secrets are those explained by the beauty of silence of the blooming orchids. Thank you, Gusti Allah for all your love and guidance. I’ll keep all secrets secret like I take care of all my beloved orchids. I’ll keep all love love like I take care of my own self.
Salaam.
Budding
The orchid’s budding,
Silently showing the day
About ever hope.
—
Blooming
Orchids are blooming,
Telling her to keep smiling.
Smiling is charming.
—
Left for some time, they keep their good vibe! Blooming again! Thank you!
Root Stays
Leaves and flowers show
How root is living. They bloom
Through time, root stays.
—
Small Joy
Blooming orchids show
Vibrant hues waited a while
Without counting time.
—
I think so much surprise comes to us because we just do without craving for the expected result. Not 100% correct, but that is most what has happened to me. ☺️
Welcome, blooming flowers. You have been as stubborn as the gardener. God bless you! 😍
Sunday is full of cleaning, laundry and sweet surprises!
Salaam.
Sweet Welcome
Welcome, Beloved.
Home is where gifts are opened,
Flowers are blooming.
—
Welcome home! said they. 💝
Lazed Days
Lazed two, Beloved,
Wrapping up five passing by;
Seven in a pack—
—
Always ready to work, always ready to rest 💝

Surprise!
Surprise, Beloved,
Dew drops slide, meet in a line;
River of blessings—
—
Weekend is mostly about staying home finding sweet surprises.
Thank you for the weekly break and lots of mini blessings!
🥰
Orchids
Orchids’s peekaboo!
They breathe, we breathe the same air.
They bloom. We do, too.
They show colours. We do, too.
Theirs are bright. Would ours be, too?
Beauty
Wasted it’s never
If blooming or not. Pretty
In its full cycle.
——————————————————
Blessed again with 5 beautiful flower stems, accompanied by other beautiful growing not blooming orchids.
Beauty is not only in the flower. It is in the root, leaves, keiki, pot and their presence everyday.
Salaam.
🐣
Scented World
Flowers scent the air
With messages telling her
To follow North Star.
The path brings her to the gate
Where home is a state of mind.
————————————————————-
Home is where the heart belongs to. This wanderer finds it where she is. Now and here….
