Beauty and the Beast

Who is the Beauty, who's the Beast?


shattered porcelain
swept away, spurned
enslaved heart grieves

  20. I've seen quite a few tea cup planters around lately. It's a worthy replacement for whatever broke! Your cup is really cute. I love the color in the macro shots.

  22. Oh! I love your patio! And this pretty porcelain teacup didn't break, did it? Am trying to read what's written on it, but can't make it out-- I like your haiku. I know what it's like to be attached to something/someone and grieving at its lost. That last macro is gorgeous.

    I love Malaysia, I love Malacca! Yeah!
    Beast? Beauty? Well, they're all beasts in beauty! Yeah!

  24. Oh, now--see I'd suggest you dump the plant (pretty as it might be) and just fill the cup up at the table. LOL Amazing cuppa coffee on that patio would be good!
