Where Have You Been My Blue-Eyed Son

admin | November 17, 2009

…………….

“Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darling young one?
I’ve stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains,
I’ve walked and I’ve crawled on six crooked highways,
I’ve stepped in the middle of seven sad forests,
I’ve been out in front of a dozen dead oceans,
I’ve been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard,
And it’s a hard, and it’s a hard, it’s a hard, and it’s a hard,
And it’s a hard rain’s a-gonna fall.” (Bob Dylan , lyrics )

………….

I fought very hard to win this thoughtful fellow, in the eBay adrenaline countdown system.

It was maybe my most expensive eBay transaction ever.

I was very excited the day of his arrival,

telling the rest of the world, my family, that it was absolutely forbidden to even touch him.

He was beautiful and longed-for my blue-eyed son,

but soon was a hard rain gonna fall.

After two minutes of intense friendship he fell out of my hands.

He was split in half .

Me too.

My first reaction was; did anyone see me? No.

Brain surgery was performed quickly, in great secrecy.

My darling had to stay in hospital for a long time.

My family and my main sponsor still do not know about it.

I have to think about my credibility.

If,

for example my husband would hear about this

I would tell him to never ever believe in Vintage Fairy Tales.

Oh Becky, I hurt all over for you. I mean

Linda in New Mexico | November 17, 2009

Oh Becky, I hurt all over for you. I mean I know you performed secret surgery but oh your pain. I do have a sorta sick feeling in my heart. My daughter was reading over my shoulder and we both gasped at the same moment. Husbands…..don’t let him know. It’ll just be “our” little secret. Me and all the other lovelies who love you.
Smile, He is a beautiful blue eyed. child and I know he can’t remember the fall and loves you anyway. Hugs and honey, Linda in New Mexico

Just like a broken heart, he was mended. His eyes

Julie Whitmore | November 18, 2009

Just like a broken heart, he was mended. His eyes say he is fine, and thrilled to be living with you. He likes the muscari that you picked too, I can tell

He is still a darling and will love his new home.

jone | November 18, 2009

in reality, they are just “things”
we love them dearly
…… but if they were gone, at least we had them once to make us smile…

he is STUNNING! his eyes are eerily strong and piercing…… wow….
seems his “repair” gave him even more character..

I love this “Vintage Fairy Tale”, Becky you have such a wonderful way with words : )

Dear Becky, think how many hands he has been through, but

danielle | November 19, 2009

Dear Becky,
think how many hands he has been through, but it was your hand that mended him and like a scar he now has another story! Husbands really don’t need to know everything….better that way!
as always the clarity in your photos is as piecing as his eyes…..such style xx
