orange

The sunrise as I drive home from work.

The henna squeezed out in a decorative floral pattern on the palms of my hands by a Mendi artist named Seema in honour of my friends' wedding soiree.

The juicy peach I eat to sustain me before heading off to bed.

My favourite scarf.

My bedroom walls.

The edges of my dreams.

Ruby's Softie Blankie (capitalized as it is so titled).

The bead that precipitated "The Great Bead Incident of 2010".

The jello the recovery room nurses gave to Ruby after removal of the bead.

The lid of the jar in which they returned the bead to us.

The Popsicle Ruby had when she was dressed and ready to be discharged.



Is it any wonder that orange is my favourite colour? What's your favourite colour and why?

Blue.

The eyes of the women I love.

The eyes of the children we love.

The sky on a clear fall day.

The ocean at Tranquility Bay.

Yellow, because it never fails to make me smile. If it were a yellow bead precipitating a Great Bead Incident, though, I don't know ... =>
