Oh Muse...Such beautiful blueness! That ceiling is gorgeous! I would love to wake up to that in the morning! And I LOVE "Tristan et Yseult" (as they are in Fench). My favorite love story after Catherine and Heathcliff! What man in his right mind asks his wife to look out the window to see if his honey is on the way?? lol Although they ruined it in the recent movie. :-( Happy Blue Monday! ...Debbie
PS I understand the importance of your pink cap and love it even more!

This is an awesome post....as usual! Thanks for commenting and letting me know where to go for blog support! ;)

Oh my goodness. Such a beautiful post. You do truly live up to your name.

thanks for popping over and this is a wonderful blog, lovely Blue Monday :D

I am also a lover of Tristan and Isolde and like a previous poster...I love Catherine & Heathcliff a bit more (LOL!) Nice to know there are so many romantics about :0)
Your posts never disappoint and I must give you a big Thank you for that!
Enjoy your day!

Hello my friend. :) thank you for stopping by. I have missed you. Your prose so often speak to my heart and in this one you have entranced me once again. :)my thoughts and prayers with you and also blessings over your creative avenues. :)

Oddly enough this monday hasn't been that blue for me. I got back to college after my semester break so my friends and I had quite a bit of fun today.
Its actually pretty odd to have fun on a monday. Maybe its because its a holiday today and we have no classes. Classes commence from tomorrow though!

Ah Muse! I loved your note to me! The wonderful thing about practicing French is that you get to go to France to practice it!
The gift of poetry, on the otherhand, you either have or you do not! Your poem written by the young Muse is lovely! You may notice that I never participate in any of the poetry games. Here's an example of early Plate Addcit:

A dead pig in the sunshine
Gathers many flies
Even though the sun be warm,
Cold the pig still lies.
Pig innards,they is good
We sometimes call them chitlins
The ones from big pigs, they is good
The best is from the littl'uns

Now you see why I cannot be allowed to play! lol Debbie

All your blue offerings are lovely--especially that ceiling! I want it!
*smiles*

beautiful poem Muse....
I love the blue pics too especially those striped lounges....

Beautiful post. Thanks for starting my Monday off in such a great way. Kathy

Oh what delights greet my eyes and heart when I come here! You're not just Queen Muse; you are Scheherazade weaving magical tales :)

Ah, that coffer ceiling is so very lovely. You've shared so many wonderful things in this post! Happy Blue Monday.

A lovely poem. You have such a way with words.

Adore the Dream banner in the last picture!

Ahh.. a sweet young Muse...what a delight! I believe she is very much alive in you today, still expressing her dreams & visions.

From heart & soul to quill & parchment...always sharing.. forever caring! xo
Love you much!

Your blue interiors...LOVELY, of course. ;) Well done, Sis!!

What a sweet poem! love your pics today, very inspirational!

Hello Muse, your posts are always a delight to me. Lovely photos, lovely prose, and perfect text. Thanks for sharing as always.

Hugs...Jeanne

Dear Muse,
You've unleashed my rhyming side,
Now I've naught to stem the tide.
As I go about my day,
A quatrain on my lips will stay.
I cannot stop, I must go on
At work, at play, out on the lawn.
I jibber jabber all in rhyme
A faint sing songy quarter time.
I've got to stop, I've got to quit
But, now, I guess I'm stuck with it
So gentle readers, please beware,
The Muse will take you unaware.
Thanks for your post on my blog
Theresa @ Cottage Violets

Mornin' Muse... had to stop by and visit your beautiful post and prose this morning before tackling the working world... lovely as always...

I promise not to participate in the poetry corner... as mine would be likened to the pig poetry above... however... I liked the pig poetry... ;)

keep toasty warm on this Blue Monday... Dixie

Gorgeous blue ceiling!

I love your poem--and all the blue, my favorite color!
Stopping by your blog was such a nice way to start my working day!

Oh dear Muse all that you do,

Even Decorating for clients in shades of BLUE!

I can not stop the words of rhyme,

From what you posted last time!

See....

The effect you have on ME!

Beautiful post.

are these pictures of your home?? if so , let me just say....wow, it's gorgeous!! Happy Blue Monday!!!

Love the poem, and the bedroom is dreamy!

I'm more of a traditional, calm, restful blue lover. I especially love that ceiling!!!

Muse, I love all of your blueness! You are a Muse of many talents! Beautifiul! :-)

Wishing you a Happy Blue Monday!

XO,

Sheila :-)

Dearest Muse,

Oh, how I wish the rhyming and the beauty of words coming together, was something which would rub off on me... Theresa made me smile, but I feel I am so like prof en retraite in the prose creating department. Oh, it all created music in my head as the tale began to unfold... I was facinated... When I had mine ready to comment, two of your 'talented' readers jumped ahead of me and mine didn't make any sense. Sorry about the delete. LOL

All I can say about your lovely post today is Bravo! The Lord did indeed bless you with many INCREDIBLE beautiful talents! The young Muse made me smile. The blue ceiling was gorgeous and your magical touch was left on each room.

You are wonderful! Have a happy blue Monday!

beth

Wow, your blog is breathtakingly gorgeous! I'm going to have fun looking around here, checking back and reading your posts. Amazing.

Thanks for visiting mine and leaving comments. You're an inspiration!

How beautiful and lovely is all that you share.
Love Jeanne

The bedroom has the perfect balance of lighting that creates interesting dimensions with the various shades of white. I am always intrigued by the use of light to create dimension amongst a predominantly single color.

Beautiful post. I love that blue ceilin'.
I have a question though, If you were only wearin' the hat, boots and legwarmers, did you ever make it to the cashew chicken?

LOL..did you say pack my bags?? I'm trading my blue skies in for blue mountains!! Know where I might find some of those? LOL
xo

i adore your pictures.

i want that dream garland!

xoxo thanks for all of your sweet comments!

Of course - love your posts! So many talents - I'm jealous! :)

I agree the ceiling was stunning, I like your schemes they are inviting.

Beautiful and inspiring...as always!

I don't think any one could wear your hat Muse. You are unigue and there is only one. Thank you for the poem. I'm drawn to the more traditional look. Everything is so beautiful. I especially love the ceiling. I hope you have a lovely day. Carol

What a wonderful post. I never really liked contemporary but I think I've changed my mind. I like the crisp, clean, uncluttered look. Your poem is beautiful also. You are on talented lady. Happy Blue Monday!
Sweetie

I am still trying to make the rounds from Pink Saturday...Just wanted to let you know I love the Pink Boots...and the horse boots...very creative.......
Happy New Year...
Mo :-)

You do wonderful prose and great pictures!! Very well done!

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Thanks for the comments. Your blog is beautiful. :)

Just wondering...how did you know my son's name?

I never have used much blue .except in the sky murals. Then I love to do blue to purple ,to gray. Kathy

Hi there
Another thought provoking poem...I like it!
The blue and white room is so fresh and airy...I would be inspired to sit and read n tehre.....look out the window. Very comforting...
thank you for sharing..
have a great day
Judi

love the post...that "dream" room photo is my favorite! I think I could be very inspired in there!

What beautiful examples of blue in the decor.

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
So much for visiting me, and for such a lovely comment!
Please do come back again anytime!
By the way... I love your blog too!
Love,

I wasn't singing the blues over these shades of blue. All were beautiful.

I hope you'd had a delightful holiday season.

Sweet Wishes,
Sara

thanks Muse, You've been added and I loved reading the rest of the poem.:)

Lovely, Musie! I want the "dream room" !

xo Isa

I love your blue pictures--and your poem!

I think I would like to do Blue Monday.
Roberta Anne

The beauty in these pictures are awe inspiring. I expect nothing less from such a creator as you sweet Muse.

How beautiful! It will read lovely on a greeting card.

Ahh, what a dream to have that ceiling and that final bedroom. Thanks for the prose of long ago - isn't it fun to revisit.....Robyn

Blue is one of my many favorite colors - love those pics! Happy New Year friend :-)

What lovely photos! And I love that you used to make up stories to go with the pictures. :0)

Happy New Year to you!!!

Thanks for sharing such a blueness poem & some great blue pics :)
I love Blue, too! I hope I could have a long trip to Island to see the ocean everyday & night :)

xoxo

OMG... that was such a great post. I enjoyed it so much...thanks for sharing your thoughts. Nice images of blue too.

Love the Tristan and Isolde painting, and yes I can see how it would inspire a bright little one like you no doubt were. I learned their story in my reading about Bavarian King Ludwig II - a fascinating character (he was big into stories like T/I).

I adore blue. Thanks.

Your words are ever so enchanting and you compliments are even so...
Thank you Muse for providing our eyes and hearts with such prose and poetry.

What a totally farout bedroom. I sooo love this! I've got a cabin in the mountains to decorate and this would be so easy to accomplish....and since I'm the Queen of Dreamsz, it only makes sense to have the word Dream hanging across the room! And that even looks like a vintage chenille bedspread on the bed...have a collection of them too..thanks so much for posting this terrific muse for me, me, me!! LOL Would it be alright if I blogged using this one photo? Please let me know..

Have a grand week,
Stephanie
