Tossed up on a Rocket.jpg

There was a young woman tossed up on a rocket
Ninety times as far as the moon.
Where was she going? I hastened to ask it
Before her vehicle started to zoom.

“Young woman, young woman, young woman,” I cried.
“Where are you going on your dangerous ride?”
“I’m headed to Mars,” was her joyful reply.
“Won’t you come with me?”
“No, not I!”


Fairly simple construction: some work with CS4 filters and brushes and a couple of free clip art images from free-clipart.net, inverted so they'd show against the dark space background.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

As I was turning pages in my favorite Nursery Rhyme book, I came across your image, Melody. It fit right in with all the rest. I love it, especially the blue background. It looks so much like real sky. These images are all so great, I agree with Laurie, we should try to do something with them.

Another great re-make of one of my favorite rhymes--I had forgotten it until now.
A fun idea--the fuzzy background makes it seem to be a felt square or part of a blanket.
