Carry on Tuesday #68 ~ This week our prompt is
the first words of Frank and Nancy Sinatra’s song Something Stupid:
I know I stand in line......
~
We may look the same
We may be shaped from one mould
But I am unique
And I know I stand in line
Waiting for your eyes
I may seem quiet
But I will bring art to you
I'll bring you new life
Yet I know I stand in line
Waiting for your touch
Take me to your world
And I will give you spirit
I'll share your dreamtimes
But I know I stand in line
Waiting for your smile

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Great poem and I love the line "I'll share your dreamlines. Nice figurines would love to have one in my garden
excellent find and good use of lighting.
"Take me to your world
And I will give you spirit
I'll share your dreamtimes"
Loved this. Beautiful poem.
I love your first stanza, a bold statement of fact. My eye kept drifting back to it, wondering how many of us stand in line, each of us a unique island of waiting.

This one had a magical touch to it. Wonderful to read!
how beautiful you have given those sculptures a voice…so nice
mine is here
There's something sad about the idea of 'waiting for your eyes'.
excellent poem.
But I know I stand in line
Waiting for your smile
And you have it after reading this poem. Did you by chance buy one of these statues? Even the smallest? They seem so beautiful.
I loved the photo and the poem is so good.
