Colorful Highlights in the Cold Winter: Red and White Cherry Blossoms Dot the Lawn-Head Tea Garden

Text and photos /TAO

Heart. Have you traveled?

It seems I haven’t gone anywhere

Travelers always secretly ask themselves during gaps in their itinerary

Although... there’s never been an answer...

Yet

What does the decreasing number of camera shots signify?

Countdown... Starting point? Ending point?

The dimly lit morning races along mountain roads as the cold wind flies freely away

Scenes outside the window chase memories in the heart

Deliberately choosing to forget a certain part

Yet thoughts become clearer and clearer

A touch of red, a touch of white

A hidden paradise? Not quite a hidden paradise...

A shivering body awaits the dawn
 

Warmth. Warm memories... a warm heart and memories...









Travelers seek cherry blossoms, yet they adore that snow-white hue...

Simply because the sight of pure white soaring toward the blue sky leaves a deep impression

So... there is anticipation in the heart




The crystal clarity in the light and shadow adds a touch of delicacy to the petals

The spotlight can no longer find who the star is

White petals flutter one by one with the wind

Like angel wings ready to take flight at any moment






Winding along the tea garden path

Strolling down the cherry blossom avenue

No way ahead? Maybe...





A brief appreciation of the pink cherry blossoms’ posture

Yet around the corner, a small path quietly lets fall a flurry of white snow-like blossoms

Travelers rest,

yet their camera shutters never stop.

 
The lonely path is not so lonely.

Flowers? They haven’t bloomed yet...

Gazing into the valley,

Can you hear the melodious music?










Journeys are filled with one desire after another.

Blooming moments never quite coincide.

Another imperfection to add to the list.
 

The traveler’s figure is nowhere to be seen.

That’s because... he has disappeared into the path again... without saying goodbye...

Through the camera viewfinder, we see the beautiful sights of Taiwan—perhaps things we once overlooked, but now deeply engraved in our memories...
