redorgray: twenty five

twenty five

patience . at times not my forte . a new chance daily

tea bag simple birds whisper transparent encouragement

as a year long project approaches midway .. the first of July already

curtains are added . bubbles fill the room . rain drums on tin

I sip tea and imagine them into birds . dreaming

who may love a poetic giveaway

happy weekend to you all

Tracy said...: I love these sepia-tea-stained diaphanous birds... So lovely, so fragile--like life. I think we all stumble on patience now and then, I do too. The nice thing is, we can dust ourselves off and start over again. Interesting I've been play with tea bag "papers" too.. we all are just now, aren't we? ;o) Happy Weekend, Elk ((HUGS)); 7/01/2011
