This Wordweave was printed on a thousand party invitations for a huge first birthday celebration in India

And wordweave for Pranati Isabel on her first birthday

We found you in a treasure box

A diamond wrapped up in the sunrise

When we looked at our treasure  in the morning the sun flung itself  into the sky and shone on your cherished face

When we looked at our treasure in the night the stars escaped heaven and sparkled together in your gorgeous eyes

A blooming star twinkling with God's blessings

When you light our skies you take away our breath on angels' wings and replace it with the joy of the fairies

Our cute little pie, our pain reliever, our marvellous creation of God.

A Wordweave for Chiquita, commissioned by my friend in memory of her Mum as a present for her brother

A bientot Maman Chic

It is time to make your signature flight home

Float to your abode on a striped green cloud of parfum Parisienne

Sign out in your slingbacks and sunglasses

Lacquered hair now long, now short, changing as you soar with the African winds

Wing to safety in a bat dress scented with orchard colours

Let it carry you to your habitation.

Fly through that gate and dwell in that house

All daring and brave and neat as a pin

Inhabit that spice-filled dwelling, dance on the incense-spiked air

 Light as a feather with your kohl lined eyes

Crochet some curtains for the Angel's dwellings

Furnish your returning with Love

Au revoir Nana Chiq

It is time to read our bedtime story

For we are still reading the same book, you on one side, we on the other

 Your face will light with a luminous smile at each new chapter 

Just as it always has

Filled with energy and happiness

You have landed now on the solid brown  earth

In the garden of God's ordered chaos

Where everything has its place, where everyone is put back in their home
