a join

 one little join
on a tibetan book
which had to be understood
because it is beautiful
~the other side~ 
see how this icy puddle 
reflects the sky
just like the bluest blue 
on the page of prayers
~~~
been working
 needle and thread 
a few more joins 
more and more circles

    I have been surfing on-line greater than 3 hours lately, yet I never
    found any interesting article like yours. It is beautiful price enough for me.
    In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made excellent content as you did, the internet will likely
    be a lot more helpful than ever before.

    the icy puddle and the two grey circles are a symphony of stillness

    The beautiful misty shades of grey always tug at my heart (especially when meditatively stitched). I am also partial to the rich verdigris blue/green in your Bright post.
