I wondered if people would notice the glow!<br />Zephyr is right, the visuals are distracting (and rather odd in a way) but I couldn't resist the naivety of approach here... it was just TOO tempting!<br />I think I am now too close to this poem because I have read and heard it so many times. It reminds me of a (now) familiar Grimm's fairy tale!<br />It's fun doingPaul Digbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13872829068371700917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11539948.post-68381433365367617342011-03-28T12:27:55.240-04:002011-03-28T12:27:55.240-04:00Hannah,

I love how the doll is a puppet here, and how it glows at the end like some kind of alien nesting doll.Hannah Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15792203070774504501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11539948.post-79592244778325705182011-03-28T10:41:29.784-04:002011-03-28T10:41:29.784-04:00Oh, goodie.
