The Dream of Flying

Have you ever had that dream?  The one where you can fly? It's been years since I've had that dream, yet I can still somewhat recall the feeling. It was total freedom.  When I looked at my kitty Guy the other day, I couldn't help but think that he was having that dream.  As only kitties can have, a dream of flying up in the sky where those birds are, just out of reach!


"I is flying...." zzzzzzzz

To accompany this post, I chose an appropriate piece of music.  The second song on the play list today is called "Dream of Flying", by Brian Crain. I've added a few assorted images which are mostly cat pictures.  Actually I'm showing these out of order, the cat nap occurred after the time spent outside.


It started like this......



 Guy said, "Whatcha doin MOM?"





"Go Away, You're Scaring Away the Chipmunks!", Guy said with exuberance!


 

"MOM!" Close up of the mouth!! He talks all the time!





 "I is the Black Lion King!", says Guy  .... with extra floofy fur!





Dot, thinking, "What is that stupid Fairy up to?" Yes, Dot that is the fairy garden...





 Dot, "What's outside the fence! It's OK, mom keeps us safe."








A blue clematis in full bloom!


Thank you for joining us here in the garden, we enjoyed having you visit!
Cat smoochies, from Guy, Dot and Diane
Oh, and sweet dreams....

 Dream Song by Walter de la Mare from Poems for Boys and Girls


I simply love the imagery in this poem by British poet Walter de la Mare and Lois Maloy has illustrated this book in such a beautiful way. Sadly, I could not find anymore information about Lois. The little bats and the owl make this a perfect poem for this month of Halloween posts!



The image for 'Dream Song' has been enhanced using the Pixlr, photo app.

Hope you all enjoyed the quirky poem!

A Little Sunbeam Shown Down on Me...

 


Last night I had this dream about a sunbeam, it went like this.....




"A little sunbeam shown down and it rested atop my cottage and as the sun angle changed it moved on to the gardens and down the path as though guided by an unseen hand and it came towards me .."

If you visited before, you may remember a while back I talked about my dream of a little cottage on an acreage someday. Well this is what my dream cottage would resemble. You know, dreams change and merge and become more fantastic over time but this is close to what I was thinking about. A pretty cottage with gardens and right at the edge of the forest. Now back to my dream.....

 English cottage

"These beautiful sunbeams are everywhere today! Then I learned (through e-mail) they weren't here by accident, they had been sent by a Fairy Princess blogger named Sharon...."



"The sunbeams are shining on my darling cottage and down onto these gorgeous lilacs! 
They are just breathtaking!"






"The sunlight travels through the branches onto the pink azaleas."



Morning Azalea Glory




"Sunbeams everywhere! This is so beautiful and peaceful! Oh I don't want to wake up
 from my dream" but then I did.



And I realized that though she may not be a fairy princess and this was a made up dream, she is a wonderful person and blogger and that's for real!

I also realized that the warmest sunbeams do come from friends like Sharon at Sharon's Sunlit Memories. I am thrilled that I am the first recipient of her new award which is called Sharon's Little Sunbeam Award! It is a no strings attached award, so all I have to do is bask in the sunbeam and enjoy it for an entire week!


Thank you Sharon for your thoughtful and very enjoyable award. It's very nice and 
warm underneath this Little Sunbeam!
