I wouldn't erase a single star.

Nor would I.

[ellenmillion]

I will never fault a single star.

[rushthatspeaks]

Agreed about not erasing any. That's beautiful.

[petra]

Oh, that makes me so happy. She's lovely.

[anna_wing]

Lovely! Portrait of Nut?

[minoanmiss]

Yes indeed. I never got over seeing Egyptian art of a woman with stars on her skin.

[marcelo]

That looks beautiful!

[adore]

Oh this is lovely!

[acelightning73]

Oh, how starry! And her beautiful starry feet gracefully treading the clouds!

[gingicat]

Nor would I!

When I went to Lubbock TX to collect Western accents for Dragon, the redeeming factor of both the trip and the coworker was driving out beyond the city lights to see the stars come out. It was gorgeous, and I also felt rather like a character from Isaac Asimov's short story "Nightfall."

Sort of the reverse of that....

When I was a kid my whole extended family shared the use of a "summer cottage" in New London, NH. Sometimes it was difficult to figure out who would sleep where in the house. I used to take my sleeping bag out onto the screened-in front porch (which my aunt always called the "piazza"). Little Lake Sunapee was just across the road from the cottage, and I could hear the bullfrogs' flirtations, the wavelets lapping against the shore, the wind among the pine boughs, and an occasional fish splashing. But what impressed me the most was that the air up there in the mountains was so clear, I could puzzle out all the major constellations WITH MY GLASSES OFF! (And then there would be a thunderstorm, and the thunder would sing me to sleep.)

I had definitely been able to see a full night sky on the east coast previously. But on a completely flat plain, in super-dry air, it was even more amazing.

I grew up on Long Island, close enough to NYC to miss the whole of the sky. But driving across Arizona, there was plenty of sky for me - I kept wishing for a horizon :-(

They belong to her. She belongs to them.

Lovely!

[acelightning73]

The sky is not the limit; it's the GOAL.

[dewline]

Leave it be!
