An exploration into my private world, experimenting with water and white floral images. I hope these will help you see this ethereal, magical world through my eyes.

Please feel free to leave your comments .... and suggestions on how to improve my techniques.

White cattleya


that tear
on your cheek
forlorn
almost incongruous
a dancer
on an empty stage

but my heart fluttered
and i was lost

White hibiscus


a shadow
moved across my dreams
last night
a lonely tear drop
on my cheek
bittersweet

was it you?

White bougainvillea

embraced in His arms
i hardly noticed
fragile and innocent
you beckoned

but i turned
to brush a tear
and you were gone.

remembrances
of a time
disappearing
your fingers trailing
an essence intoxicating

i succumb

can we ever return?

Dendrobium crumenatum - Pigeon orchid

Dendrobium crumenatum - Pigeon orchid

i weep
the fallen giants

excoriated from the earth
to feed the greed
in our souls

their silence
a deadly wound

Wrightia religiosa - shui mei 水梅

Wrightia religiosa - shui mei 水梅

silent breathing
i close my eyes

a fragrant remembrance
of jasmines

long ago
from whence
comes my hope
