Taman Rimba Kiara is a little green gem located in a corner of the TTDI residential area. The above flowering tree, the firmiana malayana or mata lembu, flashes in testimony to man's care-less-ness - it's one of only two trees in the park that had flowered, since then the tree had been chopped down.

Beauty and time

I reckon that white beauties do reign currently in and around the taman.
These cascading blooms are indeed striking.




At the other end of the taman, these water lilies have been attracting a lot of attention with their bloom lately.



And on looking closely, the lilies are alluring not just to the two-legged visitors to the taman but also other residents of the taman, and a wilting one do appeal too.



However, these beauties seem to need their revitalising sleep come late afternoon, to bloom again in the morning.


Yet, in another part, time has caught up with an aged tree, which is seen to fall victim easily nowadays to the elements.  It was indeed once a majestic tree.
     Nature gives and it takes too, still it's a natural cycle of life.  What we don't want, and shouldn't have is an unnatural cycle of life, whereby loss is due to irresponsible acts.
