Délia's Bear

I was feeling a little lazy yesterday, but knew I needed a shot or two for today's post. Then I remembered that the Passy Cemetery is very close to here and a super spot for photographs, so off I toddled. I took lots. This one stayed with me though. A tiny old teddy, sitting on Délia's grave. So sad. Délia was 17 when she died in the year 2000. I have no idea what happened, but whatever it was, it was tragic. Tiny Ted's image summed up the sadness for me.

It's a charming image but so poignant given the narrative information.

Simply - sad. But it is lovely that the teddy is still there. A very poignant shot.

Tiny Ted has held up pretty well. Just think of all the people who have paid extra attention to that grave because of him.
