Celebrating love

Today is Valentine's Day. According to Japanese tradition, I should have already made/bought loads of chocolates and by now, had given them away to people I like (not necessarily to guys apparently - just to people you like). In return, there is White Day which is the day the guys are suppose to return the favour by giving white chocolates to the girls, although according to Wiki, the men had misinterpreted the phrase White Day to mean giving lingerie? Ah....devious minds!

Oh well, since it is a "special" day today, I would like to share one of my favourite poems with you:

Jenny kissed me when we met
Jumping from the chair she sat in;
Time, you thief, who love to get
Sweets into your lists, put that in:

Say I'm weary, say I'm sad,
Say that health and wealth have missed me,
Say I'm growing old, but add
Jenny kissed me

-Leigh Hunt-

A simple, charming poem.

Happy Valentine's Day!

My dad is my inspiration. I remember growing up watching him take pictures with his camera and he continues to do so till this day. Now I find myself lugging my camera to most places, taking pictures that will serve as visual mementos in years to come and I would like to share them with you. Thank you very much for dropping by.
