The Call of the Wild - Zebra (part 1)

What is the allure of animal prints anyway?  We not only love to clothe ourselves in them, but see the other ways we've wrapped ourselves in them!

This is a cute little number to put a gift in! http:/www.nashvillewraps.com/basket-supplies/gable-gift-boxes/sku-zebgb.html

Tell Me Why When You're so Blue

SKY

Tell me why when you're so blue,
You're most tranquil (In a good mood)?

Like blue ink spilled you're smooth and wet.

Your enormity scares me,
Comforts me,
Spares me,

From emcompassing doom
When in grey gloom you sometimes cry.

I wrote that poem when I was about 17 for a writing class. I remember I was outside on a spring day...feeling the vastness of the sky, the air was a little cool (it was a Florida day in the morning) and birds were active all around me.

It's not spring yet, but people are anxious for it. Here's a few treasuries with spring time blue in them (and my Sea Wolf bag).
