"But Mother, what if you leave me too soon?" the seal pup asked.
"You'll see me in the moon, little one. You'll see me in the moon."
An encore piece which seemed to fit.
I hope to be making new art soon or you'll be seeing ME in the moon!

ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of a painting I saw years ago when a teenager and going thru a lonely times because we moved far away from what I had known all my life and I saw a painting by Margaret Keene called ALONE of a little girl sitting on a stairway to heaven. I felt such an affinity to that painting. I still have the Card with that painting on it. :)Altho I am no longer ALONE. Yours is very moving too.

the expression on the moon: to me it's unexpected and riveting. i used to tell my jessica this, lo: that if anything happened to me she could look up and find me in the moon, because i'd sure as hell be looking over her. (i said 'heck' to her, not 'hell') :^)
