Become the sky
Take an axe to the prison wall
Escape
Walk out
like someone suddenly born into color.

Nice! I love Rumi!! (Wrong shoes tho — unless she took a break from a work-a-day day?)

Yes Frank. I noticed the shoes were “off” with the Rumi poem and rest of the pic. Chose to roll with it anyway.

Nice words…but, really, is this a high heel advertisement??? What is that woman doing stomping around a hillside in those shoes? She obviously loves her shoes…because she ends up with her legs against the tree…and appears to be dreaming of…what?…more shoes??? 🙂

ahhhh, I figured the heels would set some off. If I knew how to photoshop them out, I would have done so. Sorry.

🙂 I’ll need to remember to align image (esp shoes) to poem. Major miss. 🙂

no worries about the shoes on my behalf, clothing and decoration are just the trappings and distractions – it’s what’s inside that matters.

I was just teasing you! You should delete all of my comments…because very few people will notice the shoes, I am sure. It is a nice photo too…capturing the colors of the season. Like ksbeth says as she jumped to your defense…it’s what inside that matters. 🙂

Laughing. Thank goodness that Beth comes to my defense.

Pretty colours but I think it would make a hilarious video clip to see her trying to walk on anything but pavement in those heels.
