Member of the Family
Call me mother, call me father
call me source of life and strength
call me sister, call me brother
call me only home and hearth
call me garden of paradise
call me member of the family
call me earth.

Hi Ela, Thank you! Yes, I have 2 “Lassies”! This picture is of my Sneffie – “Linden Tree” is about him.
Beautiful pics and you have a ‘Lassie’! š
I did Monica, I saw…. and fully enjoyed the whole happy scene.. . š … hugs, hugs and more hugs… (I’m feeling very hugsy today!!! ) xx
P.S. Loved your “Mondegreen” poem – so zesty and tangy! Come back to blogging as soon as you can, please!
Danke sehr, meine Freundin
Dear Pen, Such a good point – earth as a family member whom we sadly take for granted, assuming she will bear up the way she always has. Happy you like the photos – can you see our Stormy in the crib?
Dear Bluebee, Thank you so much for this lovely comment, which I missed for some reason. Now when I click on the link, I get today’s info. It has MANY interesting things, but not the one I think you’re referring to. Tell me the subject, and I will locate it. Thank you!
WĆ¼nsche eine gute glĆ¼ckliche schƶne Woche.GruĆ Gislinde
‘call me member of the family’ … and how come I missed this on the ‘Reader’ ? Hmm? … Lovely heartfelt words Monica… Mayhap as family members, some take Mother Earth for granted, … I wish it weren’t so… LOVE the photo’s … just going back for another peek… š xPenx
Wonderful to see again the photos of the things you love, Monica, and your beautiful poem.
The images of the earth are breathtaking. Did you see this in the NYT? http://www.nytimes.com/pages/science/index.html I wonder if they have collies there š
Genau so, liebe Gislinde
Schƶne Bilder sind das ja unsere Erde ist schon schƶn man muss besser auf sie achten .Einen lieben GruĆ von mir Gislinde
