Red to me is a Christmas colour
and because it is fast approaching
I sought out a red background
despite stones generally being soft greys and beiges.
Kind of a plain Jane stone
a contrast to all the Christmas lights
appearing everywhere
Christmas gifts are on their way
to the grand babies
It would be so much better to deliver them in person
but travelling at Christmastime is not my favourite
thing to do.
Some stones appear seem to be wearing winter hats
To me this is a funky snow capped stone
or perhaps a stone of Canadian origin
wearing his wintery took!
A rock couldn't get more Christmassy
being made of velvet
and wearing red garlands!
Christmas red
pathways across a smooth rock.
Snow has fallen just about everywhere in Canada
but here it has only managed a few slushy flakes
amidst the raindrops.
I hope your Christmas preparations are going well.
I must admit that, when everyone else is travelling is a very good time to be home!
ReplyDeleteLove your stones, but LOVE the background too !!!
ReplyDeleteHave a "warm" December month !
All those soft grays and tans - favorite colors. Warm and soothing. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteliking these rocks very much.
ReplyDeleteLove your red background and your stones are great. Like the one that looks like an iced Christmas pud! I like the first one and the plain jane too. xx
ReplyDeleteI have fun looking at all your stones and trying to see something in them....this time I 'saw' the side of a dinosaur head in the 5th photo. Funny how I can see things in stones but ink blots absolutely confound me.
ReplyDeletei was thinking cave paintings, but dinosaur works too...{smile}
Deletea fav. thing..looking at stones, clouds, shells to see things in them
ReplyDeleteyou make it art!
better than racing cars
How. How can a rock have two halves like that? Was it once part of a huge slab, one substance poured onto the other, broken like peanut brittle, then tumbled for a billion years?
