How Queer Everything Was


“ Dear, dear ! How queer everything is today ! Let me think: was I the same when I got up this morning? Who in the world am I? Ah, that’s the great puzzle !”

A mushroom suddenly found itself in such a dark colour when was being reflected in a puddle. It began exclaiming like Alice.

"No big ant pooed on my body, no caterpillar blew hookah smoke on my face, why am I char-pigmented like having a big scar?"

How queer everything was! This was the first puddle formed; how did the mushroom know who it was right from the beginning?

It thought that everyone is born as beautiful as everyone else, and everyone else, by right, mirrors it own self.

How queer everything was!

sometimes we have to look for our own beauty, don't we?

Some days the world is more queer than we imagine.
Other days the world is more queer than we can possibly imagine.

The mushroom must remember that beauty is as beauty does. I find this mushroom very attractive.

I like the glowing edge which reminds me that every cloud has a silver lining.

Never seen this mushroom before. Are they fungus?

Maybe the mushroom is the right color and it's all of us that are wrong.

The mushroom was right! Everyone is born beautiful. I think the mushroom still is.

It is a beautiful mushroom / fungus.
Your text and pictures are a wonderful whole.

Kind regards, Helma
