nobody commented yet??? These are all amazing things!!!!! I am so happy for Isabelle, surprised at the real LOTR, and sad for the second things, which I know I'm doing out of order right now.

King of the World said...

do not despair. weep not. Have you not read "To a young child" by Gerard Manley Hopkins?

Margaret, are you grieving
Over Goldengrove unleaving?
Leaves, like the things of man, you
With your fresh thoughts care for, can you?
Ah! as the heart grows older
It will come to such sights colder
By and by, nor spare a sigh
Though worlds of wanwood leafmeal lie;
And yet you will weep know why.
Now no matter, child, the name:
Sorrow’s springs are the same.
Nor mouth had, no nor mind, expressed
What heart heard of, ghost guessed:
It is the blight man was born for,
It is Margaret you mourn for.

Wow! Isabelle, way to go!! I read the tollipop entry. They liked giving you an ornament because you were celebrating your first married Christmas. How sweet. Do you enter lots of things? And today's word is "blest". How appropriate.

Of course I enter lots of things... that's how I win things!

I'm not as lucky as I like to think I am. Right now I'm hoping to win 2 tickets to Iceland from IcelandAir. You all should enter too. I want to swim in the Blue Lagoon.
