:inlove: Thanks for posting it, Star :thumbs:

Now the secret can be told — what’s with the Aladdin’s lamp??
Inside is Jeanie, with light brown hair and three wishes! But alas, only the chosen can see it.

The “lamp” started life as a tea kettle. Warped into a proper lamp in Procreate.
 
:lol:You’ve been having a wonderful time with your family and friends, that’s what and as it should be!
It’s called going off grid Cat, good for you and too right ‘n all... :D
Yeah.... I know. But I hate missing important stuff. Well you’re all here and safe, so that’s what’s most important.

A wish for a dear friend.
“Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” Rumi

That’s beautiful - it’s like a tapestry! I love the repetition of the mermaid (?) scales, and especially the suggestion of wings : the whole image seems to flow out from her outstretched arms. Sea and air, mermaid and angel - love it :notworthy: :inlove: :)
 
Lovely and you pick such wonderful pieces of poetry. This piece is so beautiful.

Thank you, Ann :inlove: :notworthy:.

Re poetry: I never met a Rumi poem I didn’t like. I should say ‘a Rumi translation’ because like most westerners I know of Rumi exclusively through Coleman Barks’ ‘re-renderings’ - a sample critique (by another Western translator !) here.
