This could be a perfect card. I can think of at least seven people I would send it to!  You did a masterful job, Alison  |

All too often, pictures are used as crutches for poor poems -- and vice versa! When I find a pair created and matched as beautifully as this one, it renews my faith in the whole genre. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

Jaimie, This is a photograph that kind of got away with me. It was supposed to be a picture of these Tiki Torch things. They are torches as part of night landscaping. I had the setting improperly set on my camera and the fire kind of went in lines across the picture. I ended up liking the photograph a lot. It's lines of fire (orange) on a black background. I wrote on it the following: Emotions flare, burning into the night tears wash into my smiles and you are burned forever into my memories. Always alive. Always remembered. Always loved. --- xoxox Ali |
