New paintings and regular art updates.
Note: in the UK black cats are lucky as opposed to how they are regarded in other countries.
Black cat,
golden eyes,
a familiar face.
Sleek and charming,
not alarming,
bringing luck,
to one and all.
Found in night,
hidden in shadow.
A mysterious feline,
flying through the air,
a lucky talisman,
for the New Year.
I would post a photo of my beautiful yellow glass bowl with blue conch shaped feet. But the cat jumped up on the window ledge at 6 o’clock this morning and knocked it off – smash! So I was sweeping up bits of glass and pottery from a ceramic cat that was also there.
This was after my hubby woke me up at 4 am because he couldn’t sleep. Then I went back to bed but he was cooking some breakfast so he kept crashing about in the kitchen. I finally got back to sleep about 9am, then woke up at 11am. Did I say I hadn’t gone to bed till 2am.
So, Friday the thirteenth? What else can happen?
Where is my pot of gold?
My lottery win.
When does my luck strike,
Tickets worth a million?
No chance.
But I will chase the dream
Gamble with my life
End the day so low,
No more shining light.
Colours glitter in the sky,
Shimmer in the night,
Then my life is thrown away,
Gold dissolved by rain.
OK that’s not very cheerful but I tried. I guess I should be talking about the colours but the lottery winning numbers were on TV… .
