... A quickie! :)) Thanks for a great day, AT: enjoyed your seascapes at the National! Our Office Christmas Party will be next! K xx
TRADING PLACES Blue skies painted on walls of carriages on intercity trains. Clouds indoors and I am outside, my face imposed on landscapes flashing past. My reflection a voyeur, surveying the internal scene with interest... It thinks it knows, but the image lies: it cannot see when a body and soul have traded places.�

Very interesting, Kate. "when a body and soul have traded places". What an original idea that only you could create. Those lines could drive me nuts if I kept saying them over and over:>) Kind of like "Who made God?" Excellent, Dear Kate. xxxooo Janet
