A.W.O.L.

thanks to Anestezia for picture


BETWEEN two golden tufts of summer grass,
I see the world through hot air as through glass,
And by my face sweet lights and colors pass.
Sir Edmund William Gosse(  1849–1928)


J Waterhouse's 'Ophelia'


Happy Friday to you all!  I have been away from home again,  and glad to be back.  Am relaxing for a little while and will be busy catching up on all your wonderful blogs.
How I would love to be lying in the grass pondering life,  as is the lovely lady in the Waterhouse painting!!

  2. Welcome back Jacqui. I've been away too - Lakes District and Devon - now back here in the US and missing lovely England. No place like home is there?

    Hugs - Mary

  3. Hi Jacqui, Welcome back!

    We have missed you.

    Here in the desert, laying in the grass is a luxury.

    I miss those carefree days!

  5. It would please me, too, to lie in the grass. What a wonderful thought.

    Thank you so much for your comment! I hope, you'll have a nice week!
