Across the Street on Rue Vielle Du Temple, Paris

How can you not be a writer when you see this across the street? Or am I the only one who sees it?

Laurie Powers said...: I love it. Reminds me of a book i just read: "The Mark of the Angel" by Nancy Huston. Written first in French, by the way.

Write something about it, Patti.; 10:55 AM
pattinase (abbott) said...: Oddly enough I wrote a story about an aggel for an anthology called Bats in the Belfry. And that angel has been in my mind ever since. I think I imagined those wings there.; 11:00 AM

Charles Gramlich said...: I'm a wee bit jealous.; 5:41 PM
pattinase (abbott) said...: Of the angel or its location?; 5:47 PM
Todd Mason said...: Or just the pension. What, aside from probably wings or a white shirt, do you see? It comes out pretty dark on the site as I see it...; 11:04 PM
pattinase (abbott) said...: I see wings and take it as a sign.; 11:09 PM
Todd Mason said...: Ah. Looking at it on a different computer, it looks indeed like an angel statuette in the window.

But I have been accused of a lack of Romance in my outlook in the past.; 2:37 AM
pattinase (abbott) said...: My theory is that a dancer lives there and this is his/her costume. Or that it is a real angel. I don't find you unromantic at all. On the contrary.; 5:38 AM
Sandra Scoppettone said...: I think it's a huge moth. One who has achieved the ultimate.; 11:24 AM
pattinase (abbott) said...: In person, it was not at all diaphanous. It looked solid enough to carry the weight of an angel of some heft.; 11:31 AM
Hannah Stoneham said...: It might be a really strange fan. On the other hand, i would much prefer it to be an actual angel, just hanging around in a Paris appartment!

Hope you are having a great time!
