The Oasis of Calm Serenity Revisited
Remember the oasis outside my department which I first blogged about in Sep? Yes, it’s still around, but interest in it has largely wained in recent months. Guess we can’t blame people coz other more exciting events have superceded the presence of the oasis.
The Oasis of Calm Serenity has been given a new lease of life today. It’s about time really before it gets relegated to a state of neglect, not unlike the forgotten concubines. By that time we would have to change its name to the Oasis of Long Forgotten. But hey no, there’s no massive expansion of the oasis nor a fresh coat of paint. Instead, some original incumbants of the oasis have bade farewell to make way for new ones to reside.

White poinsettias have now replaced the orchids to grace the sides of the oasis. Add to them blue viburnum berry sprays and white iced branches. I guess it must be the Christmas mood that caused the change of appearance for the oasis. A pity there’s no frost or snow though…

For fans of the monkey lovers, fret not coz they have decided to sink their roots and throw in their lot with the oasis. They are still around, looking ever so loving and devoted to each other. Perhaps a daily dose of crystal ball gazing lifts the tired spirit? Perhaps perhaps.
Their devotion has instead moved mother nature and she gracefully allowed a diamond studded butterfly to keep them company. Not bad right? So everyone out there, stay devoted and the world will work its miracles for you in return.
Devoted to you & it feels so good…
And who can forget the solitary monkey sitting all by himself atop a stone slab looking admiringly at the monkey couple right? He’s still there. But he has decided to crown himself with a tiara of blue viburnum berry sprays and leaves ala Priscella Queen of the Desert. Guess he must have flown into Thailand for a quick sex change. Now it’s a she, named Princess Monkey. Ain’t she beautiful and regal looking? Hmm…no comments. You go girl…
