WPC – Anticipation – The Boy and the Dragon Egg

With anticipation the imagination hatches some wonderful things, like an embryonic dragon curled up inside the wrinkled dark shell of an exotic egg-shaped avocado, and guarded over momentarily by an eager young boy anticipating his new parental role.

My own anticipation swelled as my visit to see the Dragon Boy came closer, and finally I was able to capture his face in person, and give him a big hug. Like his mum, the Dragon Boy anticipates great things from life and dreams of magic often. Sometimes my camera captures that rare magic that exists between eye-blinks, and I remember that anticipation is a good thing.
