if i was a phase of the moon i would be full
if i was a berry i'd be blackberry
if i was a bird i'd be blackbird
if i was a book i'd be the lion, the witch and the wardrobe
if i was a place i'd be a forest by the sea

if i were here alone i'd read this again and again , and again
i've been following your blog for a few months, and was struck by some of the pictures; 'string game' - i did this just last week at the end of a doll-making art therapy course (never ever seen it before!) and the lotus flower and apples in water 'glastonbury' is just beautiful... i watched meadowdoe's photostream in delight, then recognised her street, and her beach photos! i realised we were living a stones throw away. sychronicity and serendipity...half way round the world and back - sometimes the internet is a truly magical thing!
what a beautiful post... you can learn a lot about someone by the symbolisms they relate to.
I am already thinking about what my answers would be...
Lovely...
i LOVE your answers! and the photos and art you chose are simply breathtaking. tis fun indeed to think about things this way....and ends up actually making you feel like you ARE a little bit of all these things in the universe.
such a lovely list..just saw it on missa's blog as well and i want to do it too:)
Love love love!
Ah, so lovely! I have a fondness for old chairs and go seahorses! ;)
angelina--these kind of meme's never seem to get old with me...
urban mermaid--first, thank you for following me! i've never done a string game but would love to after seeing this illustration and hearing about it from you. and yes, micheala meadow's photos are so beautiful and ethereal. small world, isn't it? :)
caitlin--i think you are right ;)
heather--i like the way you see things!
milla and missa--thank you both and yes, there is such a nice charm to old things and sea wonders :)
