  WOW Laura, not sure what to say; lovely image and thoughts. I had just finished watching 'Ghost Whisperer' and seems to fit the 'light' they talk about it that program.

  Hi Ann, Renata, Barbara, Tiia, Stef, SSSKiki, Early, Brett, Michelle, Ellen, Chrissy, Jeff, Ron, Mumj,Karen, Doug (Not Jeff! HA!, Kathy, CCC Steve, Tammy, Carol, Avril and Mr. Path!

Thank you all for your VERY generous comments! This one was special to me and I had the hardest time naming it and writing the poem. I couldn't put it into words what I was feeling about it.

I hope I said it okay?

I feel the same about my next entry too for tonight. Maybe I should let you name them Jack? :) They both whisper light.

So glad you all liked this one, all. I enjoyed each comment. Read them twice!

:)

  Dear little sister, words of wisdom in your poem.

" The Light Is Within Our Reach
The Brass Ring Is Ours.
It Removes All Blemish
It Cures All Scars.

Hold Out Your Palm
And Let It Land.
Then Keep The Light Safely
In Your Hand."

It is wonderful to have that gift to hold your hand out towards the light and keep it there. ~Pat

  I so much enjoyed your gallery visit today, Emile. Thanks for all you have said.

I try and create things from my heart. As off beat as they may seem. I have never been a very traditional photographer. That just seems too easy! :))) So instead I get out the oil paints and splash up something fun.

NOTE: SOME MIGHT CONSIDER ME A DESTROYER OF A NICE PHOTO HOWEVER and I THINK SOME HAVE EVEN SAID THIS TO ME! Lol...
