And some favourite cards from March:
I like this one because my mother called me after Sabrina in Milton's poem "Comus". So this was probably the first piece of poetry that I learned by heart. And I have a lovely little S-shaped enamel mermaid pin that was my grandmother's.
Sabrina fair, | |
Listen where thou art sitting | |
Under the glassy, cool, translucent wave, | |
In twisted braids of lilies knitting | |
The loose train of thy amber-dropping hair: |
I feel this bird looks as if he has seen something which has astonished him - so I am thinking of adding a snail or something in the bottom right corner.
These are lovely . . . especially that mermaid!
ReplyDeleteSabrina the mermaid - how lovely to be named for such a beautiful creature. And the card is a beauty too. All of them are! (BTW - I was named after a rug store, nothing to do with the romance of France. Sometimes I wish my mother hadn't told me that.)
