"So that picture's a figure of eight? Well, you could have fooled me," muttered Kate.
"More like handcuffs or doodles...
But no matter - they've oodles
Of pictures like that in the Tate."

I live with my husband in Devizes in Wiltshire where I spend my time writing, reading, riding (I am the lucky owner of a beautiful horse, Blue), and keeping up with my four children and an increasing number of small grandchildren (eight so far). I was for many years a nurse and a Relate counsellor. I have taught creative writing both at a local college and a prison, and I review a wide variety of items - including books - for the Amazon Vine programme.I write to death row prisoners in America, being a life-long opponent jof the death penalty. And I spend too much time blogging..

I can just imagine that being said! You caught it so well.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like one of those word verification things to me! (Just tried to comment on a blog that insists on them and gave up after 5 attempts)
ReplyDeleteI don't even try leaving a comment if I meet a WV cryptogram. Life's too short.
DeleteLove the verse, but can't fathom what it is. Is it a painting or a photograph from an obscure angle? Would love to know.
ReplyDeleteToo true! I just can't fathom out why they call it art - but they do!
ReplyDeleteSurely it's a word verification. Surely.....
ReplyDeleteI love it! Short and sweet!
ReplyDeleteI wished I'd thought of this! I Love this!
