Description

"People are like stained glass windows; they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within." - Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross "We all walk in the dark and each of us must learn to turn on his or her own light." - Earl Nightingale "I will love the light for it shows me the way, Yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the stars." - Og Mandino "Writing has laws of perspective, of light and shade just as painting does, or music. If you are born knowing them, fine. If not, learn them. Then rearrange the rules to suit yourself." - Truman Capote "I didn't want to tell the tree or weed what it was. I wanted it to tell me something and through me express its meaning in nature." - Wynn Bullock "If the Vikings were around today, they would probably be amazed at how much glow-in-the-dark stuff we have, and how we take so much of it for granted." Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts] "You can't have a light without a dark to stick it in." - Arlo Guthrie :-) I hope you all don't mind that I'm going to be posting a few pictures of dandylions that I'm having fun with. They are our first blossoms of Spring. :-) Thank you so much for your kind comments on my last picture. I know some of you are at least having fun blowing on these fluffy white flowers that magically fly away and grant wishes. ;-) Have a wonderful weekend and I'm looking forward to viewing your galleries!! (((Hugs))) ~*~maggie~*~

You're getting too darn creative each week..this is wonderful work my dear daughter. I like the creative out of the box thinking you've been doing ...the left side looks like a 4th of July fireworks and the right side looks like a hairy golfball...lol Have a great weekend my dear.
