The Beauty of Light
"Anger is a wind which blows out the lamp of the mind."
Robert Ingersoll
You are the light
in my darkness.
Your smile assures me
I will emerge from
this dark tunnel whole.

Thank you Jim. I wouldn't have even known there was a problem until your e-mail and the strange message from google that required they send a code to my cell phone I had to enter to get back into my blog.
DeleteThe lamp reminds me of an alien flower - very beautiful and lovely words to accompany your photos.

Hi Seraphina, so nice to see you here and thank you.
DeleteWonderful (and strange!) image - I think it would have taken me ages to work out what it was without the second image!
ReplyDeleteThe foam shot on my blog has been (deliberately) turned upside down - it just did not work the way up!
