simple bird . simple word a day early
this week I believe in a bit of black white and red
on an everyday table :: in a spring garden unexpected :: as paper is folded
I believe in sharing always . the simple stone and simple bird above will be given away

i saw some beautiful bird paintings yesterday and they made me think of you.
Only after the second reading did I realise these were a gift to us! Beautiful words and a lovely sentiment for an island needing so much love at the moment.
Your love poured out
in birds and stones
stirs fresh prayers
like strong winds
in my heart
...Lord, rebuild their foundations
and give them wings.
Strength and lift
to the Japanese people
(I do so find myself falling
in love with them)
Thanks for this beauty,
Jen
Elk, as always simple but full of feeling! Lovely links, too.
what strength this images hold ...
i love that "believe" is singing from the darkness of the body, and the wings are light...
Such precious gifts. Love how you create 'art' out of such simplicity. Beautiful - all of it!
That's exactly what I'm doing...dreaming and believing :)
Both so tender, simple and strong ...
so lovely and so needed.
