I feel nostalgic now for the binoculars I had as a child. They lived in a chestnut leather case with tartan lining. I'm sure I saw a falling star through them. Your poem reminded me how wonderful it was to use them.
I love the binoculars one. I tried to think of something for this promp...nothing came to me so am leaving it this time. How do you get inspired by the topics J? How do you do it is there a method any tips?
Neat. I can remember my first time looking at the pleides through binoculars - hey, how did all of those get there?

ReplyDeleteHmmm...When we open our eyes and see in new ways, we believe at first that all we see is new. Perhaps it is!
ReplyDeleteThe awe of seeing through new eyes!
