SWORD DANCE

"Sword Dance" (9-5-14 004v12) is another of my Ganesh figurines. He's actually made of brass and was a gift from someone just because he'd heard I like Ganapati (another of His names). That sword is my letter opener and His regular spot is next to my recliner where I read my mail. I got that letter opener years before this Ganesh; it's a fanciful Excalibur. Seriously, it has that name running down one side. When I was trying to decide where to keep this Ganapati I realized Excalibur would fit just right in His grip. How's that for a mixing of mythologies. Though somehow they fit together.

The Ganesh Chaturthi festival is almost over. I'm going to miss observing it.
