‘Be Kind’ By Mo 2014
India Flint has sent out an open invitation for
“Solace”
a gathering of pennants made with hands and hearts from around the world to create
“a collective impromptu poem, recorded on cloth, to sing in the winds”
All the details are on her blog
‘Be Kind’ will live here ’til I meet India & Roz Hawker in real life at the Bower Bird Blues workshop in the New Year!
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Michelle in NYC asked a few weeks ago
“what two words would you give to your younger self?”
I said, “Be Kind”
Beautiful Mo
Thank you, Mo. I’ve had to cut way back on my blog reading and I had missed this. I very much want to do one.
Hi Beth, love the idea of them all gathered and getting dipped into the indigo blue, then hanging out to weather for a good long while & looking forward to reading the poem!
I was so excited by the thought of it all that my head raced off so I had to come back and really look at yours. How wonderful. And fine advice to your younger self. It looks a little owlish hanging there.
Thank you Beth, I hadn’t seen that owl!
So happy to see this first Solace flag … I did some thought-storming today and am very much looking forward to contributing.
the gathering will be amazing!
wonderful Mo
will you make yours in felt Els?
What a beautiful idea, Mo! This will be truly amazing when all the pieces come together. Be kind! What I’m constantly telling my grand children should be their clarion call. ((((Mo))))
I look forward to seeing them all weathered out in the desert one day…
Oh Mo i really love this……………..
(((Martine))) I look forward to seeing your solace!
Perfect metaphor—shield that blade! Brilliant Mo….
thanks Michelle what will you say?
hmmmm, text of yer post sure looks familiar ;>]
guess that’s how it goes …. when we all start waving flags !
(((Christi))) mea culpa!
I thought it was important to make it clear that
“Participation is open to anyone … everyone”
& couldn’t think of a better way to say it!
it’s deleted from this post now so hope that’s OK!
Beautiful Mo. Need to get started on mine.
thanks for the good words Deb, look forward to seeing yours!
