Pink Hibiscus

@ mirandablue
Hibiscus (Gumamela)

Give and take...
For to the bee, a flower is a fountain of life
and to the flower, a bee is a messenger of love
and to both, bee and flower,
the giving and the receiving is a need and an ecstasy.

- Kahlil Gibran

...and for the child-at-heart, hibiscus makes great mix for a fun blowing bubble time! Hmmm, I think its time I make some and scare my dogs ;-)
