Found great inspiration from this challenge. Thanks Joanie and you too Debby. I always find your comments encouraging. I'm not a creative person and none of this came naturally to me but I no longer worry if I can't 'get it right'. I just play. Anna and the Oscrappers have given me a great gift. I'm much obliged to you all.

Poem by Mary Oliver - extract from Wild Geese

Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are heading home again.
Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting --
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.
Love the look of clouds in the background. The photo treatment is beautiful and I love the messy stitches and poem. Beautiful, artsy page!
 
Yup, that is a great poem -- like so many great ones -- "the world is unfolding as it should", "each strand in the weave has a meaning" ... I like things like this. Even in this crazy world, I continue to believe that there is a purpose ... I have a renewed "sort of" likeness for geese now. I am so familiar with the one's that leave presents all over the place! Just think, Minnesota/Australia ... I new a man from Perth once.
 
Oh hun - you are such a great artist! Art is so personal. What one person loves another will hate. That's what makes us all unique! Don't ever be put off or try to make your pages outstanding beyond what you have created. Create for YOU not for others :)
 
Well if this is you just 'playing' I would love to see what you produce if you try! Beautiful page.
 
beautiful poem, great photo, a very, very artsy page. love, how you arranged the photo, the urban stitches and the text.
love your style and i think you are VERY CREATIVE. thank you for inspiring me.
 
you are creative in so many ways. beautiful pairing of image and poem. the tilt of the photo is perfect as it helps the geese take flight.
