Tracings
Touched by tracings of
stars. Holding life as breath in
surreal clarity.
Spellbound. Network of charms whirled
through passage to safe harbors.
Original image, left, altered through the magic of Photoshop. Words for tanka from Colleen and the secret keeper. Colleen also provided the inspiration image below.
“The magic of childhood is the strangeness of childhood–the uniqueness that makes us see things that other people don’t see.”
–Maurice Sendak
“Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it.”
–Roald Dahl

Dear Kerfe, I know that feeling all too well. I’m getting really so little done and haven’t even made as many phone calls to my elected officials as I want either. 😢 Hugs!

And the same back. If we each do a little it will all add up.
