Leontine


......................................................................................
I belong to Ook's series

I was born from several different yarns,
pure angora, mohair, cotton, wool, some polyester
from ochre, several hue of rainbow, mauve, white and yellow colors
and as well as a #1 hook.
I'm 6" tall when I stand up and 4"1/2 sitting.
I'm fully jointed with disks and screws bolts
and padded with mohair, polyfill and plastic pellets.
My eyes are funny squinting german glass eyes.
My nose is embroidered with a light beige cotton thread.
I'm wearing a necklace from glass beads,
and I have a sweet pea flower, made from a thin cotton thread
and crocheted for me by Nadine.

Some sky's blues, some honey...
some fields covered of the yellow of the colzas, and above....
a rainbow....
To go away through the beautiful country, to breathe new air...
To let oneself to carry along of the road's meanders
and to swallow the perfumes of flowers....
to stop at the road edge and to wrap oneself up
in the green grass to give birth to Leontine.
Here she comes, so fresh, from our old countries born...
from her sunny mood,
she drives away the grey stones and the concrete.
Here she comes spruce, fancy dressed...
she adorns herself with some thin clouds,
some light splinters and flowers.

I'm living with Paula who adopted me.
