| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 07/23/09 at 06:27 PM Love this! My husband and I have been breaking glasses and chipping dishes this week - odd gathering of shattering. One glass managed to bounce on the floor this morning without breaking. Perhaps we are on the upside of this phenomena. :)
I like how you bring in "someone else's breath". This almost feels like a gentle breeze blowing through glass windchimes, waiting for the big wind. THank you. |

| Posted by George Hoerner on 01/11/10 at 03:15 PM Life and blown glass have much in common. There is or can be far more strength than expected and yet the fragility of both can be a very real concern for all. Nice write lady. |
