In memry of my dad and tribute to Nong Nooch Garden

Tuneful preludes play on whoosh of spring wind as flowers spread their kaleidoscopic wings Two quartets daze in awe while celebrating a reunion with picnic and ballroom dancing. The golden showers radiate and incandesce… Tulips and jasmine nearby bloom so fresh. Like utopia where ensembles are veritable Birds of paradise hung their notes to warble. Music plays…. in graceful moves…smiles scintillate a luncheon together - each one will never forget. Memories are all in photos with red roses Big sunflowers are captured…jutting our faces. I hold tenaciously an album in a bright clip of families in garden party for close friendship.
