lost to second

I am now lost to second. Entirely swept away by it.

Not good enough.

Not good.

 

Inside second I am white. Not even grey.

Translucent. 

Invisible.

 

Within second I am dead. Not here.

 

Sweeping life away...

Sweeping life away.....autumnal work and excitement. Seamus and I enjoy a day outdoors, clearing a carpet of leaves and then joining neighbours for a spectacular evening of fire-blasting warmth, thrilling Catherine wheels, and wonderful food. I love autumn.

It's that birthday time of year, again!

This year Seamus and I are planning a spectacular birthday bananza to celebrate him turning 6. It's turning out to be great fun and truly setting my creativity on fire!

First decide a theme:

Seamus' Scooby Doo!

Second make the invites:

Third make things, in age old (well, ok, 3 year) tradition, make massive larger-then-life Scooby birthday banner:

Next: plan to organise party games, bake a bundle of cakes, and then dress the village hall with an assortment of eery wall hangings and generally moody monster nasties! We can't wait for the birthday fun to begin. Let's hope most of the 40 children invited turn up!

The hand that feeds me.

Or tries to at least.

Well done @gazcook. You are lovely.

Melancholy music

The captured soul sings a song of freedom.

It sails, over the breeze, through seething misery;

to a moment of reason, exploding in to fears' fire.

Down fall the blooming petals of relief;

beyond barren soils of sorrow.

Wonder dissolving in rancid rains of pain.

Beauty extinguished by the tortured heat of hurt.

Laughing, boisterous, blinding fun in the sun, rain and hustle of London town (and Highgate).

All in all a fabulous little trip darn sarf!
