Thankyou Horus, Surya, Ra, Tonatiuh, Sol, Helios, Taiyang Shen ....

Grateful for a short holiday by the beach. Three nights feels like two weeks. Thankyou sun for all your kindness. Don't let those cloudy photos fool you, they passed over with little more than a shower. The Aztecs, Egyptians, Pagans, Buddhists, Hindus, Africans, Indonesians, Chinese... really  had it sussed with the whole sun worshipping thing. Some warm rays after an early Autumn chill was just what my bones/brain needed, even if my freckly white skin is a little wary. There was even some swimming! well waist high paddling anyway.  Even better, on returning home, my garden had been lapping up the solar delights and filling itself with produce. All hail the sun god.

 

More holiday pics to come, I am a terrible whittler.

Playing along with Maxabella Love's 52 weeks of Grateful.

Sunshine in A Cup

Write On Wednesdays Exercise 19 - Sunshine in a cup. Write the words of Emily Dickinson: "Bring me sunshine in a cup" at the top of your page. Set a timer for 5 minutes. Write the first words that come into your head after the prompt. Don't take you pen off the page (or fingers off the keyboard). Stop only when the buzzer rings! Do this exercise over and over if you wish. Write beyond 5 minutes if you like, you can link it up as an extra post.

Exercise from Ink Paper Pen

Bring me sunshine in a cup,

Gratitude on a plate,

Love in a bundle, 

Good times in red boots, 

Solitude in a garden, 

Good will in a pot, 

Warmth in your hands, 

Kindness in a rug, 

Sweet rest in a chair,  

Fill me with rays of light, 

Shimmering through the day, 

Let the moon cast no shadows on my sleep.

Don't forget to enter my giveaway, especially if you like birds.
