This is a haunting close up photo--I assume in Mexico? Love your haiku, too, especially those words razzle dazzle. Such a contrast from the other words.
It is a fabulous image and the expression is so deeply moving. Rebecca's Madonna. What a glorious halo round her. Razzle Dazzle is so onomatopoeic. I love words like that to describe and it certainly fits here. Beautiful post, Meri! xoxo, Noelle
Haiku My Heart i invite you to imagine living in peace one day at a time I have to admit that I'm finding it hard to celebrate the birthday of my country having declared its independence from Mother England, when the country was founded on institutionalized slavery, the idea that white men were created equal but but black men were less than and women weren't even considered. We tend to glorify the "all men are created equal" phrase without looking at the reality. We can do better. We must.
Dia de los Muertos brings back such enticing memories. . . The stalls in the markets filled with little muertos figures each with their own personality. Marigolds -- by the armfuls and bucketsful. . . Colorful flags Candlelit altars the sounds of guitars spooky senoritas and lots of scary boys and ghouls. To share in Dia de Bloglandia, Visit Rebecca and Stephanie .
