Creativity and a small stone

Creativity...

Yesterday I was one of three judges

who had to judge wearables,

on their creativity,

at the fair in a nearby town.

It was the second round of judging,

as construction had already been judged.

All the wearables were

made by 3rd graders

up through 12th grade.

Of course it was divided up

into different catagories

and different age groups

throughout.

Sometimes judging

on creativity alone

is a difficult thing.

I was blown away

by the talent

of such young people.

What does being

CREATIVE

mean to you?

Fiona Robyn,

the originator of

a River of Small Stones,

states...

"A small stone is

a polished moment

of paying proper attention."

My 'stone' photo...

This photo was taken on Cape Cod National Seashore.

The beach is covered with small stones.

NOTE

I mentioned before that

my stones do not necessarily

relate to my stone photos.

The small stones that I write

are from observations

made here at home,

on a daily basis.

My small stone for today...

Noble live oak,

winter green and full,

acorns have fallen

to its base,

adorning the shadow quilt

of speckled light,

on saplings

wee and delicate.
