or high hopes

dc egg

what are you brooding on

egg Magritte

(just playing)

egg road

dear Norma , the queen of adorable birds, presented us with

a theme of (seemingly) endless possibillities ,

the egg form and patterns, so perfect,

the literal and figurative content,

 egg time is coming on this side of the world :)

please have a look at 'our world of eggs',

the names of the other players you can find on Norma's blog,

have a fine weekend

untitled but with hope

this may not be the happiest of posts but i place it anyway;

sometimes my thoughts go out to the children living in 'war zones',

and i mean all places and situations where it's hard to grow up,

very distorted circumstances which leave their marks forever.

making this collage i noticed i used rather light colors for such a heavy theme;

yes there are the stains and the 'written history'  that can't be erased,

the asking eyes and hands, there might even be blood on the toy,

but there is also hope, blank pages that could be filled with happy words,

butterfly ; more hope and transformation and... color, 

i'm trying to give myself some hope here i guess, a kind of comfort,

a wish and a call for compassion and human responsibility.

dc lighthouse

maybe you are a lighthouse

guiding me along steep cliffs 

 new shores

we meet and part

again , again

 and over again

i will not drown

you will not burn

we are water and land 

we glow

blazing mirrors

in a dark night

this week's theme is lighthouse, in dutch the word is 'vuurtoren'  (loosely translated: tower of fire),

i like  both these words

please take a look at the work and inspiration
