flying high to Greece

 
Posted by Picasa

it IS! somewhere in a huge truck at this time...from Socorro, New Mexico USA
with a customs declaration that simply says: cloth

when i sat and looked at this piece of silk, looked at the stamped images and
words on it, read everyone's thoughts and information, all i could keep thinking
was that it wanted to be whole, remain itself. and i also simultaneously
pictured the header on Manya's Mythcolour ...same colour.....and i remembered
her posting a backdrop she had made for storytelling and i could feel her,
hear her telling stories when i saw that...and
right away, it was about that...if nothing else but to hang on her beautiful
ClothLine amidst lizards and rock and sea breeze that carries the scent of the ocean while she dreams up
ManyaMyths...

so, i filled out the form, sealed the envelope and Flora the postperson studied
the computer about sending things to Greece and she shyly looked up and said
"what Is it?", and i said "just some cloth from the thrift shop for my friend."
isn't that amazing?
yes.
