 . . . Last evening the sky had an itch. So laughing angels scratched its back leaving streamers of clouds for the stars to play hide and seek amongst ~ Until a stern north wind complained ~ and silenced heavens playground ~ . . . . Chris Barker July 2003 ~~~ |

Chris, I gasped out loud when I saw that photo! It is sooooooooo much like a painting that I sold a while back, that I am dumbfounded! I actually have goosebumps. In fact two couples came to buy it from me at the very same instant. That had never happened to me before and I didn't know what to do. They started a bidding war! No kidding! Let's just say, that I ended up selling it for a price beyond all dreams! Loved the poem!--and the photo!  THANKS!!!Linda |

Well now, I am happily surprised and grateful for the comments I have received for this little piece. Linda...that's an amazing story. The sky actually looked like that to me as my husband and I drove along last night. Then my muse whispered in my ear and I grabbed my paper and pen.  hugs!! |
