Magic Wand
I wish I had a magic wand
To make it go away;
I'd wave my scepter over you
Until you were okay.
I'd think good thoughts; I'd send you love;
I'd transmit healing vibes;
My wand and I would surely beat
Whatever the doc prescribes.
But there is no magic scepter, so
I cannot cast a spell;
Just know you're often in my thoughts,
And I hope you'll soon be well!

Thanks a lot for your visits, comments, faves, invites, etc ... Always very much appreciated !
This gorge, often called the Grand Canyon of Europe, is a beautiful range of mountains looking down on the river that runs through the whole gorge. A great spectacle, popular with tourists who visit the sights of Provence.

A little something for Gerard. In honour of the life and work of Gerard ( Pifou ) who was such a consummate gentleman, a great artist and a very warm-hearted man who never forgot to laugh, who never took himself overly seriously. He was a great friend to many people on Flickr, with his big, open, welcome and his boundless generosity.
Gerard often posted shots of shop windows with cute, funny or whimsical figures in them. He made us laugh, he made us pause and look at such things with new eyes. It was a very endearing quality, quite disarming in the best sense. I chose something from my archivers that I thought would honour Gerard and his curiosity so often found in shop windows and curios. I love this shot as there seems to be a hint of a fairy tale in this collection of oddities. It seems to suit Gerard.

Dedicated to my very dear Flickr friend Gérard (Pifou) who is sadly very ill as he explains here .....
I saw this figurine window decoration in Provence in the Spring of this year. It made me think of mon ami Pifou, who certainly would have enjoyed it. May he rest in peace.

And never stops — at all....
