The Morning Glory Earrings


#79 The Morning Glory Earrings
THE MORNING-GLORY Florence Earle Coates [1850-1927] Was it worth while to paint so fair Thy every leaf - to vein with faultless art Each petal, taking the boon light and air Of summer so to heart? To bring thy beauty unto perfect flower, Then, like a passing fragrance or a smile, Vanish away, beyond recovery's power - Was it, frail bloom, worth while? Thy silence answers: "Life was mine! And I, who pass without regret or grief, Have cared the more to make my moment fine, Because it was so brief. "In its first radiance I have seen The sun! - why tarry then till comes the night? I go my way, content that I have been Part of the morning light!" When evening comes , morning glories fade away. These beautiful lamp work morning glories will last forever! Made by the super talented Nolly Gelsinger who is the mid atlantic regional director of the International Society of Glass Beadmakers, I feel very privileged to have gotten a pair of these lovelies! I've added several different lengths of sterling silver chain with drops of AAA Ceylon Moonstone. At the top next to the lever backs, I added the customary curly Q that you see on a morning glory vine. These earrings hang 2 3/4 inches long. (7 cm) All components are solid sterling silver.
