61) Who are they footing outside Singapore Botanic Gardens

by | 56 Comments



outside SBG 10

We always stumbled over the grand entrance whenever we enter a brand new tourist spot.  The next moment we just can’t wait to see the new adventures coming your way.  So gate crash!

And we ignored the little fairies calling outside the entrance that made up the big picture as a whole.

This may happen in Singapore Botanic Gardens but not the way I perceive it.

They are not invisible, they are just lying low.

They are as gorgeous as fairy.

They are the encyclopedias in silent I should read.

So who are they…?

Some I don’t know, some I knew, but most importantly, they need to be known!

Young ginger changing himself in blush!

Floating musical notes!!!

Listen to the Weeping Tea tree’s calling!!!!

Where are your bamboo friends, My Bamboo Orchid?

Bring them outside the fence. We need more fans!!!!!

    As beautiful as fairies, yes, wonderful way to express it and one needs to look as hard as if one were trying to find a fairy.

    I love to look up in the sky
    There lovely clouds go passing by

    I love to look in front of me
    Beautiful scenes I always see

    But for fairies search near the ground
    Shh now don’t make a sound

      We like to see thru the window
      To wait for the fly pass birdie
      We like to see the reflection on the glass
      Beautiful face of each other
      But for fairies over the Ocean
      I’m now chatting to

    You’re right, Sydney. If we do look at all that lies below us, than we can find the beauty in them :)

    I have not left my footprint in the Singapore Botanic Garden lately, but only footprints in many of my old friends and relatives’ heart by visiting them. I visited friends that I know from primary and secondary schools, it does not matter if they stay high, or low in the society, like the flowers, unnamed, and lying low outside the entrance, or those with the shinny name plate inside the garden, they all look wonderful. =)

      Thanks, kc! You are one of my favorite neighbor!
      Peace in you! :)

    By calling them fairies you are branching off into a world of fantasy and wonderment that all gardens should instill in their visitors! Great job!
