Open these threads...
Allow me to weave love and beauty
into this cloth I Love.
Take these threads...
Gently sew them to the edge of my waiting.
Bind these threads...tenderly
to the one who breaks my heart.

Question: My black background and gray ink is sometimes hard on my own eyes, and a dear friend said she enjoys reading my posts but the colors kill here eyes. So, I am open to any feedback and suggestions any of you may have regarding this particular layout, colors and legibility of font choice. Thanks!
Jenny, I bet you could keep the black a surrounding and put the printed type on a grey smaller background with black letters. steve
ReplyDeleteThank you, Steve! I will experiment.
ReplyDeleteColor letters are always difficult for me to read, no matter what the background. I get a strange 3-D effect with them, but I'm in line for new tri-focals, so that's probably just me. Love your blog with the beautiful images and the poetry. It often sends me to do more research, and that's certainly a good thing.
ReplyDeleteMy eyes do the same thing with black and white. Thank you, Susan, for the kind words!
