This is all true! I picked the poncho to lift my spirits on those greyest of days, and deliberately paired it with Periwinkle to don the most fabulous colours of the sky together, sun set, sun rise

and RAINBOW!

I get so excited When the sky is grey And the clouds hang low When rain is falling And the puddles grow; For I just can't wait To wear my fuschia poncho! Don my periwinkle sandals And away I go. I forget about my age Prancing to and fro; Giddy like a child In my rainbow camo. For the Rainbow Colored Camouflage Contest! Tuesday March 7th 2017
