Poetry

I have a confession..... I had to look up the word prose just to make sure I had got it right.....


1. (n.) prose
the ordinary form of spoken or written language, without metrical structure, as distinguished from poetry or verse.

2. prose
matter-of-fact, commonplace, or dull expression, quality, discourse, etc.

Thats all right then...... here is my tag. The words are by Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) spoken to his dog when he ruined papers of Newtons that represented years of work. Oh dear!

O Diamond! Diamond! thou little knowest the mischief done!

I really enjoyed making this tag..... the tag was from Woody's new jeans.... I covered it with some scrumpled tissue paper and torn strips of paper from a catalogue that had a nice vintagey feel... then I added some rub ons.


I love the photo..... I bought it ages ago at an antiques fair in Winchester, I added the diamond to his collar, glued on the quote and stapled the photo to the tag with some rather funky green staples! The 'cherish' dog tag I bought when I was in NY in a wonderful shop called The Ink Pad.... the only rubber stamp shop in NY. I thought there would be craft shops everywhere! Barry had the patient of a saint as we hunted it down in the snow!


Looking forward to seeing what everyone else does..... there is such a huge variety each week. It's wonderful!
