The Lady and the Lamp - Sky Watch

Sky Watch - your host Tom Wigley - Please visit to see who's partipating.

(Sorry for the delay - Blogger probs)

I'm presenting to you to day for SW, my version of = = THE LADY AND THE LAMP. Just like Florence Nightingale and her lamp.... The Sun is The Nurse Florence Nightingale, Warm, Tender, as she takes care of the Earth and all its inhabitants keeps every one warm and secure during the day. As Florence gets tired - so she goes for a rest and slumber. The lamp keeps its light shining for everyone of the Earths creatures safe and sound and secure throughtout the night

To fog or not to fog: that is the question.
