today i join rebecca's clan of
wordsmiths who write haikus from the heart
i hope you visit some of the sites
paint filled hands create
fanciful creatures that spark
imagination
and
i am loving this book,
principles of uncertainty
by maira kalman
the title alone. . . .
here is the first page
it reads
how can i tell you everything that is
in my heart. impossible to begin. enough.
no begin.
withe the hapless dodo
galumphing innocently around
mauritius sporting a
ridiculous plume. then-
out of the blue- man arrives
with a hankering for a
dodo sandwich and
poof!
by 1681 extinct.
no more dodo.
Love your vibrant paintings!
