Beautiful Quote by Vera Nazarian

“When hope is fleeting, stop for a moment and visualize, in a sky of silver, the crescent of a lavender moon. Imagine it -- delicate, slim, precise, like a paper-thin slice from a cabochon jewel. It may not be very useful, but it is beautiful. And sometimes it is enough.” quote by Vera Nazarian — Download Open image

Shadows follow, joyful, laughing sprites. The tree is rich with potential wonder. All it needs is a glance from you to come…
