Tanaga from Philippines

Whereas the West is snowing
Marian's at Real Toad's - fussy
little forms - tanaga
I'm closing my eyes... and mind-traveling to the Philippines. Getting warmer... warmer... yum!
ReplyDeleteWonderful words Hank.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Beautiful tanaga, Hank!💖
ReplyDeleteSuch a contrast - and I'm feeling the cold, Hank!
ReplyDeleteWould take sunny and bright now at our sea, blah to the snow
ReplyDeleteExactly! Snow here! Geez!
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing along, Hank :)
Snow on the ground here too... I need the contrast actually...
ReplyDeleteThat photo is full of such serenity, Hank...
ReplyDeleteI could use some of that sunny green. I live where it is supposed to be warm, but this has been a cold winter for us.
ReplyDeleteSunny and green all year, that sounds delightful right about now.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing about sunny and green all year long is I find those places have HUGE bugs :) So maybe I'll take a few freezing spells.
ReplyDeleteWhen I moved to Tampa Florida (where it's sunny and warm all year) I was thrilled until the bugs came out at night. Lizards by the swimming pools were cool though.
