Purple Bougainvillea Vine
My house in Honolulu town
Is big and cool. The roof is brown.
It once was red but now the sun
Has faded it. The vines have run
In purple splendour everywhere.
They look so fine, I do not care
To tear their gorgeous blossoms
down
And paint the roof. I like it brown.

"Photography is a way of feeling,
of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured
forever..............it remembers little things, long after you
have forgotten everything."-----Aaron

things of life which are the real ones after all."

Majenta is a color of beauty on
this bougainvillea vine.
Oranges and pinks join together
for a lovely blend of subtle tints.
"The sweetest flowers in
all the world-A baby's hands."
-----Algernon Charles Swinburne
The pink bougainvillea displays
its summer colors with perfection.
