Whimsy
Shadows
Fluttering
Untied
Ice cubes
Sunbeams
FRAGMENTED by Granny Annie
The beautiful pendant was
made of spiraling stained glass,
to be worn on a silk
ribbon, a creation of whimsy and
class.
It
glittered in the shadows displayed
with pride
Until,
fluttering ever so slightly, the ribbon became untied
and like crushed ice
cubes the pendant tiles shattered.
Hastening to catch each
piece still they scattered.
and drifted to the floor
while lingering sunbeams
bounced off the pieces
releasing sorrowful screams.
As per my comment in Hannah's blog...."Hang on! I'm rushing to help you pick up the pieces!
ReplyDeleteVery nice, Annie. :)"
This is lovely - and I so hope that the pieces could be recovered, and restored.
