Stars on still water

















There was something incredibly gorgeous about

the whole day yesterday

Seventeen

( yes seventeen )

miles of freedom on our bikes.

Coffee and cheesecake at an outdoor cafe

and a flower hidden tenderly in my hair.

Sun and sea

and a book half read.

The sun shining

filling up my eyes

making me dream of mermaids with silver

shells in their hair

and deep sea divers who,

upon seeing them

can never speak of beauty again.

Down there,

in the quiet

live oysters with pearls in their mouths and

ribbons of light

that dance like stars on still water.

In those ( perfect )

wonderful moments

I felt like Alice falling down the rabbit hole

only

into utter loveliness .

Summer, oh summer!

Stay!

Cast those stars ,

around this waiting heart




Current , ongoing obsessions

Tiny doll houses
tiny books,
anything vintage.

Pretty misty stars

A sound of birds singing

 It's early.  And almost a year since I was here. I hear a sound of birds singing  outside my window and a dog barking down the street. ...
