Magical Evening


I've been trying to find words....
and I know that there are many many... '
wonderful', and 'very special',
'super', 'grand' - 'incredible!'

They're there, like red and shiny apples
ready for the picking
And I pick them -

one by one I put them in my basket

Apples last a long time I don't have to eat them now
I can even paint them if I want to in a still life

And paint will turn to sunny fruity smells
I think
as I am reaching for the golden apple all the way on top

That's the one!

That's the word!

The word is 'Magical'!
(Raspirit)

We want to thank everyone who came and made this official opening of the Art Sanctuary a truly memorable evening:
- Chelle, who voiced us through the program and gave us all the sweet music to dance to;
- Enniv Zarf, whose most beautiful piano music put a real sparkle on the whole event!
- And most of all, we thank all of you, friends and new aquaintances, who took the time to come and celebrate with us!
- And our regrets about SL limitations that prevented so many more who expressed their wishes to come.

Greetings from Raspirit Heron and WieBenIk Beaumont
