Day 16 – 30 In 30

I am stunned. Don’t get me wrong. That is not conceit. It is pure… well I’ll let Gomer say it.

This is really good.

If you are on Pinterest, take a look at my fabulous art “collection”. At fifteen days, I already have over 200 pins showcasing artists who are participating in Leslie’s painting challenge. If I won the lottery tomorrow, my walls would be covered with these works of art.

You can take a look at Leslie’s daily offering here, as well as the gallery for the day. Thanks so much for visiting my blog, it’s always nice to hear from you!

If I could be,
under the sea,
I would float aloft the current
in the wonder of the dream.
Cool, calm, deep true dark.
I would travel the world,
to the oceans heart.

Heart of the ocean,
cobalt commotion,
share your secrets tonight.
Deep true dark,
oh I will never part.
In your embrace I glide.
