Sunday morning

The sun was operating at maximum heat when I came home this morning from my usual sunday hike. The lights danced off the white walls and I caught a glimpse of several little purple blooms hanging off my balcony. I have no green fingers but my cleaning lady Kak Nor does. She told me she found it pitiful to find plants deserted by their previous owners. Many times she brought them back to her kampong home where her mom would nurse them to good health in her own garden. Recently her garden is getting a little bit busy and she started to set up a new mini nursery at my back balcony. Gradually over the weeks, I found this lilac plant, and several other house plants that I know no names. She even helped to take care of my birthday bonsai. Today the flowers bloom to prepare for the pollinating season. I am sure Kak Nor would be very delighted on her next visit.
