TAKE A WORD - CELESTIAL


This week Deann has chosen CELESTIAL as our word for inspiration at Take A Word and that reminded me of just some of the strange things you might see if you gaze at the stars.  Last night as I gazed into a cloudy August Yorkshire sky searching for the music of the spheres and the annual meteor shower,  I saw instead a strange man on a bicycle riding along a cobbled road; a tall elegant flying machine, a rusty old Mother ship and a host of Chinese fire lanterns ..... and soap bubbles!

    My goodness! I'm going to have to go out, lie down, and have a long look at the Indiana August skies. I don't know if I could find all these wonders or not! Superb fun, Ann. Creative and artistic. 5-Stars from me!

    you should take more water with it, Ann, but then you wouldn't see all these things that inspire your incredible art, take a bow!
    WHEN i looked up into the Mangaroa skies last night (during a power cut!) I saw white things floating down onto a carpet of snow that is still there at 2.30pm and its snowing again, first time for decades!!

    Clearly, a very exciting Yorkshire sky! Looking up in London it is very hard to see anything as there are so many lights. It's wonderful!
