Just right,
And hold my finger out
Just so,
I can touch the sun,
As easily as anyone.

And I can touch the moon.
This made me smile and think of riding in the car as a child when I thought the moon was following me.

That is a beautiful memory Ali Grimshaw, thank you. And I’m glad it resonated with you. It does sound, like how I feel. 🙂

What a wonderful point of view you have, your imagination is so much in sync with mine, “Have you ever flown up to touch the Midday Sun”, Twins again…

Oh my gosh we did indeed.
This piece of mine, started with the drawing first. Here’s the truth. I was trying to draw a basketball. But I drew the circle, then I drew ‘me’. Then I tried drawing ‘me’ holding the ball. Instead I drew my hand touching it…and it looked like the sun so I redid it a little. IT’s how my head works. 🙂

I’m thinking about the worldly aromas of coffee beans, all sweetly blended with the innocence of children’s milk from around the world, as a morning potion to all our world leaders. 😊

Well now, if we could get the world leaders to sit with us, I would like a few more of ‘us’ with ‘us’ and maybe the leaders could sit there and absorb all of our wisdoms and kindessess. 😉

I don’t the world leaders are very good listeners, I’m afraid I can still hear all the worlds hungry children crying, even from way down here…

Ellen you are so kind to me. You are very welcome. I’m glad you meandered your way here, I really appreciate it. And it’s funny that Ivor asked, because as we were driving the other day my husband said, out of the blue, “what made you draw that blog today?”
