I was going to change my avitar again but this one is growing on me, so I think I will keep it. I made it last night instead of going to sleep and now I am exhausted. So, instead of some original writing today, I give you a poem from my great-great-great uncle."The air is like a butterfly
With frail blue wings.
The happy earth looks at the sky
And sings."
- Joyce Kilmer, Spring
Your new little avi is adorable - and perfect for you! Two weeks ago I might have thought it a flying lucky clover - but today I know better!
ReplyDeleteVery cute Nessa. The poem fits perfectly with it.
ReplyDeleteMelli: Lucky clovers are good too and you are not the first to think so.
ReplyDeleteThom: 'Cept his butterfly is blue.
I love the little butterfly.
ReplyDeleteYour great uncle's name was "Joyce".?
Ooohhh, I really like that flying butterfly. But Nessa, what do you have against pink?
ReplyDeleteVery creative!
ReplyDeleteLoved the lines too!
