Twinkle twinkle little star
I can’t approach you with a car.
A train can’t reach you, nor a plane.
To walk up to you is inane.
Though I crave your brilliant shine,
I fear you never will be mine.
I’ll be content with lesser things
like fairy lights and diamond rings.
But when I see this earthly bling,
I will not think of anything
except for you, so far above.
Things out of reach prompt longer love.
The prompt word today was “Twinkle.”
That is just sand caught by sunlight twinkling around this perfectly-heart-shaped stone in the wet morning sand.
Xmas lights furnish the twinkle in this detail from the palm fruiting stem I used as a Xmas tree this year, covering it with shells and stones in the shapes of hearts, other sea findings and handmade flowers I fashioned out of egg cartons and paint.
A shot from a firework display held, coincidently, on my birthday—part of the celebration for the 100th anniversary of the town I grew up in.
Castillo fireworks in jocotepec, Mexico.
last night was the final procession for the 12 day celebration of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
My Christmas Tree/Altar. Very twinkly.
This is the tree in daylight.
