Sacred Glimmers....Earthweal Weekly Challenge

 

 three talented  kids

having the courage

to sing wonderful nerdy songs

 grandparents would love

i would adopt all three

 

 


 

 three bunches

for the price of one

sacred glimmers

in the supermarket

 

 


it's sunday

no one's swimming in my

bogey hole

good

one of the rocks has a big smile

one of the few constants 

in my life

my nana told me it keeps the

sharks away

my nana knew everything 

 

 


 the soft dreamy gaze of 

 beautiful marmalade boy

a serious cuddlepuss

no need for an electric blanket


two forlorn little sprouts

determined  interlopers

an onion

and a fish fern

they are both very welcome

  6. Oh, what a delight, this series! Yes, those lads were in glorious voice, weren't they? And how lucky you to have such a knowing Nana. (Yes of course she did, I wouldn't doubt it!) And the Mother Teresa quote is perfect.

  8. What a joy it was to stop here and to see your many sacred glimmers. Even when not understanding a single word, the music video, with the singing youth, injects a sudden surge of happiness and hope.
