Mystic Rose's One Image Contest * July 16, 2025

I'm smiling but I have to say, "Hey diddle diddle." In the nursery rhyme the cat just played the fiddle and it was the moo cow who jumped over the moon. But here I sit, all alone and singing a good night tune. I hear that little dog laughing because he likes to cavort. It's not funny to me, but I'm trying to be a good sport. And if I could make just one teeny tiny wish, I would run away with the spoon instead of the dish. I'm getting kinda scared because I'm just little bitty, ready for bed in starry night pajamas, a sleepy kitty but if somehow you could rescue me before sunrise, you would be a superhero in my sleep weary eyes.

Lin, this has some very deep emotion in it. The kitty seems to want a rescue, and that is food for thought. The moon underneath is like a smile, but the cat is looking worried. A lot of interesting contrasts. Makes one think! What is our station in life? Take care.
