Our theme at Take a Word this week is AUTUMN COLOURS and that made me think that as the nights draw in and the temperature drops, the best way to celebrate autumn is with candles, a glass of wine and a nice hot bath.  Mmmmmm.

TAKE A WORD

Our theme at Take A Word this week is BLACK, WHITE AND RED.  The dress (a little black number from my wardrobe!!!) seemed just the thing and even more so when I added a beautiful pure silk red rose.  I might wear this the next time I'm invited to something special :D

TAKE A WORD

Our theme at Take a Word this week is TWO and here are my two.  Here was a couple of women in New Zealand watching their children play in the sea whilst having a chat between themselves.  It was one of those snaps I knew would end up being the basis of a piece of art later!

So, it's MODES OF TRANSPORT across at the Three Muses this week and that reminded me of the lovely green striped fish I saw riding his bicycle clean out of our garden pond (a week last Tuesday).  Not like any fish I've ever seen before and in fairness I'm not sure whether he was a fish since he swore he was a butterfly.  and who am I to disagree!  I loved his crown though.

TAKE A WORD

Our word for inspiration at Take A Word this week is BALLOONS and yes, I admit it, it did remind me of the girl I saw from my bedroom window (a week last Tuesday).  There she was as large as life floating sedately by apparently without a care in the world.  I think she was having a wonderful adventure!

TAKE A WORD

We have TIME as our word for inspiration at Take a Word this week and that reminded me of a strange sight I saw, a week last Tuesday, from my bedroom window.  There in the darkness I saw a gentleman's pocket watch hanging there in the sky.  As I watched I noticed the timepiece was disintegrating before my very eyes as birds began to fly from it, or out of it.  I couldn't tell which.  But even stranger, as I looked closer, I saw a man desperately hanging from the minute hand of the timepiece and wondered where he was bound.  I never did find out because the very next moment the watch disintegrated totally and disappeared from sight.    One question ..... could it be the cheese I ate before bedtime?

Thank you for looking.

THE THREE MUSES

We have TEA CUPS as our theme at the Three Muses this week and that reminded me of the loving cups I saw recently (but not through my bedroom window).  They were quite charming.
