Re: Deb's Coffee Klatch-Off Topic Chat

And after much ado and much magic out in the ether....drum roll please ...rrrrrrrrrrrrrr

 

I present a couple of photos of our Holly's sketches.  

 

The first is a sketch of her Poem Hope Floats

 

hope

 

Here, once again is the beautiful poem that she wrote to go with this poem.

 

Hope Floats

.

Floating amongs the glassy sea,

Reflecting the clouds and drifting ships,

Hope looks for ones in need,

Ones like you and me.

.

Floating upon the rising swell,

She looks for you and me,

I hide behind the waves,

Afraid to see, to hope, to open up.

.

When the water rolls on,

And I stand there alone,

She is still there,

Hope is floating beside me.

.

She warms the chilly air,

She fills the darkest voids,

She has found you,

And now me.

.

Together as new friends,

We can share,

We can dream,

We can hope,

 

Together we keep each other afloat,

As we wave off hope,

Watching her give as she floats.

      

                        --- Holly

 

 

Enjoy

 

Muse

Re: Deb's Coffee Klatch-Off Topic Chat

Mornin'!  Muse, like Deb, I am sorry about your disappearing snow.  KY had a beautiful skiff yesterday morning; it, too, melted quickly, but no rain and no mud.

 

After doing more web searches and talking with other theatre friends, it looks as if I'm going to be doing a wire frame and paper mache turkey project after all.  Everyone says that IS the way to get the most realistic looking prop for stage. The side hidden from the audience will have a concave space in which we will hide a roasted chicken which will be hacked at by a character (me!) during the play.

 

Great day, all!  (Somebody really needs to tell me how to insert graphics--No, that's wrong--I really need someone to tell me how to insert graphics.)

Re: Deb's Coffee Klatch-Off Topic Chat

Hi Everyone - Just a quick note to let you all know that I didn't forget about you all...We arrived in FL on Sunday, but have really not been online OR reading (shame on me !!) until today. Things should settle down tomorrow and I'll have more time to read. Hope all's well with everyone. Happy Reading...
