Shifting Sunbeams, Light to Dark

 

Light to dark and back to bright,
 the sunbeams shifted to my hearts delight.
Bush outside the window of the kitchen that is mine, 
causing shadows to dance, keeping the time.




It looked like this but much, much slower...Dear Google could you make the gif maker adjustable speeds for the gifs? I needed shifting not blinking
Sorry Yam, I know you do not care for blinking things on blogs

I was born on Sept 5, 1944 and there were no cameras or sell phones or edit programs back then.
All I want for my birthday is this Dizziness I am feeling to go away and not come back again.
I am two years past 3/4 of a century.
Hello age 77! I feel like I am 666!

Happy Birthday!!! You will always be young at heart and eager to learn. And the pineapple is too beautiful to eat.

Happy Birthday to you! I hope your dizziness goes away too. I have a VP Shunt in my head for hydrocephalus. I know dizziness like I know my own self. I hope yours is just passing by. Perhaps stress from all the worries of late. I will pray and wish you a wonderful day and weekend too.

PS - Bob would love the greens here. We will post some photos of green market stalls for you next week. Spinach, vlita (amaranthus), greens I've got no name for and lump it all together under 'horta', samphire, purslane, beet greens, lettuce, parsley, dill, mint, coriander etc and that's before we start on beans, okra, and green peppers... Black is a bit tougher: aubergines, plums, figs, olives, ummmm ..beetroot?

That's a great idea, making the gif-maker adjustable! All the same, I LIKE it. (When I first read this on my phone while still in bed, I thought my phone was acting out!) I've never purchased a real pineapple before -- but Tom was oogling the fresh containers at Publix the other day. I may have to YouTube how-to 'butcher' a real one.

I hope your dizzy spells are abating somewhat ..... and you have a happy day ... and a WONDERFUL new year!

Happy Birthday my dear Friend.
I pray this day and those to come will be better and better. That your dizziness will go away and your joy will return.
Love your poetry and I hope you can feel that today is a new day.
We are almost 1 year apart..I'm older so ...we will get through all of "this"

Happy Birthday Sandra, and Many Happy Returns. So sorry about your dizzy spells, it would be the best birthday present indeed for the dizziness to disappear, it must make life so difficult. Have you had your ears checked out? I hope you feel better soon.

That's a big Pineapple, I like your shifting sunbeams poem, but not the blinking! It's blinking horrible,:=))

So sorry to hear you haven't had a happy birthday with the dizziness and chaos going on in your life at the moment. Well done for reaching 77. Hopefully you'll feel better soon. It's good to see you playing with light and dark.
