VINTAGE TIME... SPA's TIMEPIECE CHALLENGE...


 Time, time, time 
See what's become of me 
While I looked around for my possibilities 
I was so hard to please 
Look around Leaves are brown 
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter... 
...Hang on to your hopes, my friend 
That's an easy thing to say 
But if your hopes should pass away 
Simply pretend that you can build them again 
Look around The grass is high 
The fields are ripe 
It's the springtime of my life 
Seasons change with the scenery 
Weavin' time in a tapestry 
Won't you stop and remember me? 
Look around 
Leaves are brown 
And the sky is a hazy shade of winter
~

Wow, gorgeous card, I always love rusty things, too. I can relate to the "looking back in time" portrait of the woman in the clock, and also the poem. So much thought went into this, I really love it! :) PS - I try to keep looking forward, but at my age, there's so much to look back on!

Lovely artwork Deann, and I like your blog header image, too.

Deann, the combination of the stunning timepiece artwork and the song is brilliant. It evokes a curious mixture of melancholy and hope, which is ramped up by the quiet tones of the image. Loving the layer upon layer here.
