The world is

I came across the following wonderful quote from an e. e. cummings poem on Heather's blog and I just couldn't rest until I found some photos from 1982 that illustrated it...

"The world is mud-luscious and puddle-wonderful.”

Yes, I'd say the photos are perfect with the quote. Wonderful.

It is, isn't it? When I saw the photo in my updates...I absolutely HAD to get a closer look, it was my kind of interest, you know...then I found that you shared this smile maker too.

When I found that quote - I truly smiled on the inside :)

Thank you.

I really like the photos that you found :)

cummings is soooo fun to read.

I love his boundary bending use of language: vocabulary, punctuation, capitalization, and rules of grammar.

e e inspires.

The Cast

This is my main blog insofar as it is the one I try to ensure has at least one entry per day - and usually two. It is also the one which has my Friday My Town Shoot-out on it.

My home is in Pensby on The Wirral in Cheshire, England but at the moment I am on holiday in the Outer Hebrides, staying at my brother's near Stornoway. (Somewhere I have a little map that says I am here and points to Stornoway but I can't find it and am too lazy to make another one). This is the cast of characters who appear regularly:-

Me - sometimes known as CJ or John and otherwise known as Scriptor Senex; Jo (alias Partner-who-loves-tea and also known as Partner-who-hates-being-photographed); Bryony (Food-loving-Daughter); Bryony's husband Mark (Son-in-law-who-cooks); Helen (Daughter-who-takes-photos); Helen's husband Ian (a.k.a. Son-in-law-and-Friend-who-loves-Otters); Richard (Son-who-watches-films);
