Accidental poetry
I have written a couple of little poems, nothing too intense just some things that popped into my head last week and today...
CURIOUSER
I'm curiouser and
curiouser in a
maze of
contradictions, all
hidden instability and
private pain.
In the mystery of
synapses I'm all
lost in definition,
perhaps a seed of
inspiration
will let me go
again.
WHEN I WAS LITTLE
Blowing dandelion wishes,
running barefoot through the grass.
Giving butterfly kisses
all sunshine and heart.
Wearing daisy chains as crowns,
every day we make believe.
Thoughts had wings when I was little,
my life a beautiful dream.

Now I'm off to take Sienna to hospital for her cystoscopy. Ooh, and my photo of her blowing a dandelion was featured on the homepage of the 'Childhood' group on RedBubble .
Some bluebells are white
Isn't that a bit of a contradiction? It seems like they should be called something else. In my garden it's hard to remember that they're not onion weed, which is just all over the place right now. But among them were some snowdrops (gone now) and now bluebells in white, blue and lilac. Mostly blue, but still. This afternoon I spent a few hours pulling up onion weed and other mess in the garden (this is but a drop in a pond, but it's a start at least), and when I came inside I picked a bunch of bluebells to make myself feel better about the garden. I actually love it. I just hate that others hate it. But I've ranted about that before, so let's move on.
Here is a page I did on Thursday
And now Kell and I are off to see Lisa Mitchell at Ruby's - just around the corner, gotta love that :) Ben and I saw her a few months ago at Brunswick and I really enjoyed it, so it should be fun. Kell, Roh and I also saw Paul Dempsey at Ruby's a week and a half ago (fantastic), and last weekend we picked up Beatles Rock Band for the 360, so I'm feeling quite music-inspired of late!
Delight
I have felt like scrapping lately, though I kept getting frustrated or distracted and all weekend wanted to scrap but didn't get to! So this week I have been determined, and yesterday afternoon I scrapped this layout for a challenge on the Aussie Scrap Source blog - they post the entries and have a poll to vote for your fave, check it out here. And the layout uses a photo of my sister Hayley and her little boy that I took earlier this year when they visited.
