Musical Angel

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ A tiny figurine on my verandah looked delightful in Autumn morning light.
I am still struggling with my broken arm.
X-Rays now show that there are 2 breaks at the shoulder which explains why my arm is so heavy and useless.
This is one of the first photos I have taken with my left hand only operating the camera.
Must take photos somehow!

Cute little angel
How do you play your music
Such a twisted pose

Ralph said...: I had no idea about your arm - may it heal correctly! The healing in body will continue - in mind too. Yet with a plucky spirit, photos will occur. This is a stylish photo, captured under trying circumstances. And lovely! The angel may be a metaphor for the caring and healing you will experience - we pray for sooner rather than later. We all hope...; May 15, 2011 10:19 AM

Magical Mystical Teacher said...: That angel has exquisite balance: feet in the air, hands on the lute!

WONDERFUL NONSENSE

A shadow’s a wonderful thing;
O listen! Can you hear it sing?
It tells of a time
Before there was crime—
Trust that and you’ll trust anything!
