Pearl Holding


















Dear Hand-Lenders,

I want to whisper to you, through the chink in the wall, as did Thisbe and Pyramus.  I want to tell you that I have been thinking of your hands.  Although we cannot see each other, through this wall, I will know from the sound when you are making mudras, or ombromanie.












Some mudras for dancing, and some for meditating.  A few hand shadows, and many hand shadows.








John William Waterhouse's painting of Thisbe.





I will be listening for you.
