Tuck this in your heart as you go:
A...Go, Anna! <br /><br />Tuck this in your heart as you go:<br /><br />AS kingfishers catch fire, dragonflies dráw fláme;<br />As tumbled over rim in roundy wells<br />Stones ring; like each tucked string tells, each hung bell’s<br />Bow swung finds tongue to fling out broad its name;<br />Each mortal thing does one thing and the same:<br /> <br />Deals out that being indoors each one dwells;<br />Selves—goes itself; myself it speaks and spells,<br />Crying Whát I do is me: for that I came.<br /><br />Gerard Manley Hopkins...Molly/Cecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14754996366796005745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10937707.post-13008432767321203292013-04-29T07:57:21.014-05:002013-04-29T07:57:21.014-05:00I'm definitely craving more creative exposure ...I'm definitely craving more creative exposure in my life right now!

Glad to offer you something to gnaw on. <br /><br />Hi, Vijaya!<br /><br />Love Marvel. I'm a fan of Brian Michael Bendis and of course Stan Lee. I absolutely believe that I should be friends with Neil Gaiman (Sandman). <br /><br />I always feel some pain when for some reason art is overlooked. I'm just wholly impressed with some of these films and I saw one of the directors (JW) a while back and I could see in him that he has a hunger for honor by his peers for his art and they just don't do it. <br /><br />I do absolutely agree it's a good idea to give small gems some love but to ignore the best of the best seems to send an odd message into the the universe. <br /><br />Anyway, I hope your weekend is full of simple gifts and you find the place you're supposed to be... Love ya.

Awards, schmwards? Yes, they are nice to have, esp. for the small gems that tend to get lost, but to become part of the American lexicon, it's is own reward. I'm happy you had such a fun weekend.Vijayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876606729146077830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10937707.post-4523705909469574002013-04-28T07:35:43.954-05:002013-04-28T07:35:43.954-05:00Your blog posts always make me smile.

Oh, and thanks for teaching me a new word, lagniappe. I had to look it up, of course. I dig research (a bit of creative exposure!) Did you know it's mostly used in the Gulf Coast South region and entered the English language by way of Louisiana French? Fascinating.
