Camellia

These pretty Camellias were taken at my cousin's garden; in the coldest month of the winter season. It was amazing that the rest of the garden was brown in color and these Camellias were the only ones 'smiling' to my arrival in London!

Breath-taking! Loved to just watched these sweet flowers enjoying the gentle winter breeze whilst having my daily English breakfast of hot tea and crispy toast with homemade marmalade jam.

Reckoned as a love flower, the Camellia symbolizes longing and passion...


Gratitude and Perfection...that is what a Camellia stands for; its bloom which amidst its essence, dreams, passion and luster has delineated the very term "LOVE" over and over again.


Let the pink dreams of a Camellia weave the magic of love as it whispers into her soft ears "I will die for you..."

Far there in the inland valleys
Frost tells her tales
The tulip shakes their heads
While Camellia whispers
Her the age old tales
Of love and languishment...


Thoughts...
Feeling a little stressed at the moment and taking a moment to look at these Camellias...
They bring back nostalgic memories of not too long ago...of love and family...and the greatest of all...GRATITUDE for LIFE!

Gratitude is the memory of the heart (Jean Baptiste Massieu)
