irresistible and dreamy


i borrowed this little meme from the girl who married a bear and a cup full of sunshine.
i couldn't resist. to think about these things made me daydream and smile.
if i was a month i'd be june
if i was a day of the week i'd be saturday
if i was a time of day i'd be late afternoon
if i was a sea animal i'd be a starfish


if i was a direction i'd be southwest
if i was a piece of furniture i'd be a hammock
if i was a liquid i'd be a river
if i was a gemstone i'd be turquoise


if i was a tree i'd be a cottonwood
if i was a tool i'd be a wooden spoon
if i was a flower i'd be ranunculas
if i was a kind of weather i'd be bright and sunny



if i was a musical instrument i'd be a tambourine
if i was a color i'd be sky blue
if i was an emotion i'd be bliss
if i was a fruit i'd be a mango


if i was a food i'd be pico de gallo
if i was a material i'd be cotton eyelet
if i was a scent i'd be jasmine
if i was a flavor i'd be curry


if i was a sound i'd be a country jamboree in a barn
if i was an element i'd be water
if i was a mammal i'd be a fox
if i was a phase of the moon i'd be full


if i was a berry i'd be thimbleberry
if i was a bird i'd be hummingbird
if i was a book i'd be On the Road
if i was a place i'd be moonshine junkyard


play along if you'd like. it's too fun to resist.

Filling in those blanks creates such beautiful prose don't you think?!

This is a spectacular idea. Thanks for the mention, and glad you got the image-link technology going your way! Your choices for these are SO good: cottonwood, pico, on the road, thimbleberry!, southwest. Great pics, great plan.

I'd be a coyote.

Loved your answers, and just so you know, the tambourine was my alternate instrument ;)

have you ever heard Tori Amos' song bliss. It's dark and moody and wonderful. Bliss is the perfect emotion to be.
