The Tearoom

Hello, Today I am posting my answers to my Shakespeare Tag ! I've loved reading the posts done so far, and I look forward to reading more! Some of the answers I've seen have made me want to change mine, but I've tried to mostly resist the urge. When I started answering these I realized how hard they are! If I do another tag sometime will someone remind me to make it a little easier? Nevertheless, I wanted to answer my own questions, I promised to do so in my initial tag post, and I now have the excuse that I was thoughtfully tagged by Megan Chappie at  The Pen and the Cross .  Anyway, "March on, join bravely, let us to 't pell-mell!" a quote which here means: stop stalling and let everyone read your elongated answers to the questions. The Rules: 1. Answer truthfully, "Thou canst not then be false to any man." {I just put that as a rule because I wanted to use the quote . hee hee! } 2. Tag at least three people and let them know that they...

Gi'e ye good day fellow bloggers, As this is the month of poetry, and as this be The Bard's birthday, I thought it would be fun to try a tag. Now, since I've never created a tag before there are sure to be some flaws, frankly I don't even know if this is what you do, "But be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em." {that quote is only appropriate for me if you know the context.} The Rules: 1. Answer truthfully, "Thou canst not then be false to any man." {I just put that as a rule because I wanted to use the quote . hee hee! } 2. Tag at least three people and let them know that they've been tagged. "For he today who does this tag with me shall be my brother..." 3.Link back to the person who tagged you and post a link to your post in the comments, because I want to read your answers and "There never was yet philosopher who could endure the t...

Salutations! I hope that in spite of everything you've had a beautiful month of April so far, and that you've been able to get outside and see the poetry of spring in everything. I've been spending considerable time in various secret gardens on my family's property, and have been attempting to celebrate National Poetry Month as best I can. Right now I think we could all use something to celebrate, not in a huge way, but something to keep us inspired. On that note, here are some fun things to celebrate for the rest of the month: April 15th {today} - World Art Day April 16th - National Librarian Day April 17th - International Haiku Poetry Day April 18th - Newspaper Columnists Day April 22nd - Earth Day April 23rd - Shakespeare's Birth Day April 24th - Arbor Day April 26th - Shakespeare's Death Day & Baptism {possible birth date} April 27th - Tell A Story Day April 28th - Great Poetry Reading Day April 30th - Poem in Your Pocket Day ...

Hello All, April is a special month; the plants are coming back to life, the first flowers are arriving, the frosty mornings lace the trees, the birds are returning. In short, it's really beginning to be spring, the perfection of creation, Easter in everything. This is the perfect time of year to celebrate the art of description, the only true way we can communicate our thoughts and feelings: Poetry. Don't just take my word for it: it's officially National Poetry Month! Since we're all detached from the world at the moment, our alternative forms of communication have become more important than ever, please remember to e-mail and write to your friends, it encourages and makes a big difference for someone to hear from you, even if you don't think so. In relation to staying in touch and encouraging one another, and because we have a bit more time on our hands, I think a group exercise in creativity is what we chiefly need. " 'I've just...
