Description Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

no touchy!

This is my first entry in to the Passion contest by

While you may not look at this piece and think PASSION, I do. Passion is not always about lust and love and the feelings between two individuals.

The horse, in this image, is passionate about LIVING. It is passionate about survival.

So here you have it

-blinks- I don't know what's going on with me. All of a sudden I've been on a manip spree... o.o

Anywho, I was going through all my old psd files today, and found this horse cut out.

On that note, it wasn't my best cutting work ever (from 2006!) so I had to touch it up a bit. It was also a smaller file than I am used to, but I managed... ^^

I LOVE this background, I always have, and so I'm happy to be able to use it finally.

Um, other than that, there isn't much to it. It's simple, but I like it I think. hehe. I like it a lot, actually ^^

*****

When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

I particularly like the water in this. It has a silky purple quality to it.
