... and created it visually and audibly too. It's beautiful. And it's many other things, including poetry.
So, for something a little different this time, click here!
Apologies to those who've already seen this on facebook or elsewhere — but if so, you'll know it's worth sharing as widely as possible. In fact, it's a must. And wait, there's more!
The author, Canadian Shane Koyczan, has a website, a facebook fan page, and you can find more of his poems here and here. For other details about Shane, check his Wikipedia entry.
And when you're on his website, don't miss listening to the track, 'Remember How We Forgot' — top right, just under the picture/link for the album it's from, Remembrance Year. But be warned, once you've heard it, you'll want to buy the album. The chances are very good that, like me, you'll be going, 'I'm in love with this man!'

Friday already??
ReplyDeleteNot only that: it's March already.
What is it with time that it can't keep time with itself: it races or dawdles.
Off to follow your links.
Oh My Goodness, Rosemary! Thank You So Much for sharing this amazing animated spoken word piece. Captivating my complete attention, the words and images impact powerfully. You outdid yourself with this one.
