Shelter

My mother, Mama Eden, always worries about her garden everytime there is a storm. So when Typhoon Reming was labeled a super typhoon, she had all her potted bougainvilleas brought into the house. These were the ones in the sala.




By the time the storm had ended, all the bougainvilleas had shedded their bloom, creating a sea of petals on the tile floor.




If only the entire Bicol region had been just as sheltered.
