Happy Vampire Cat Blogging Friday
Veterans's Day Edition.IN FLANDERS FIELDS The poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

That was beautifully done, cookie jill.
Thank you.
Cute! Looks like Rousseau, when he was young. :)
Hey, I found a link with something that maybe you would like: THE WONDER WORLD OF K. GORDON MURRAY
That's sweet. Love the cat. Looks real vampirish. ;)
I'm glad that you all enjoyed my picture of the kitten in the cemetery, which I took a couple of years ago in Grand Isle, Louisiana. It is copyrighted, and a little credit would have been nice, but you guys seem like a nice bunch and Veteran's Day is a good cause, and I always have enjoyed "In Flanders Field", so please leave it up, with my compliments. I don't have any other particularly vampirish looking pictures, but you can see some of my other photos at PatrickMartin.com.
Patrick - our bad. We'll add copyright attribution post haste.
Thanks! I was bored today and saw your blog in my website referrer logs. The picture of the cat is one of my favorite shots, though a lucky one. I was in the right place at the right time. What on earth did you search for that led you to it?
You're welcome - it's a great picture. As for how cookie jill finds these, I have no idea...
