Mirm's Nook: this is it!

this is it!

Okay, so this is the first post! Should I anticipate addiction? I decided to call this blog, "Mirm's Nook" because there seems to be many crevices and "nooks" in my life and others-places where thoughts emerge and everyone does their own thing. So this is my own thing....haha. Some of you may find it interesting (Mrs. Jones!) and I'll hopefully find it stress relieving, fun, and possibly refreshing!

"THE ARTIST"

She pented land and seascapes, and she didna pent them ill,
And tuk leeberties wi' Nature for to mak' them finer still.

She pented a' her simmer skies a double extra blue,
Nae Antrim sky since Adam leev'd had ever such a hue.

She acted very leeberal to mountains as to height,
And gied them a' a thousan' feet aboon their size by right.

She even in her picters wad the times and saisons change,
Had new-born lambs at harvest time-a thing we thocht
was strange.

"Imagination, aye," she said, "should guide the penter's hand,"
And that, of course, explain'd the things we didna understand.
