Inspired by Ashley Kim(who actually listens to children (of all ages
Captain Color resurrected for the Ruta Maya Children's Sessions Sunday morning AIPF
Fool clown understood by fresh hatched wombwet ones
who understand both movement and colors
and joy and openness,we stood-Lady Blue accompanying
entering the magickal world of the very very small people
Now-soon there would be the Children's Anthology
(a standing room only event of magnanimous success
organized by Lady Blue with suitable accomplices
but this early session was an open mike
for those with sound poems and movement poems
but not necessarily words as yet.No matter-they are attracted
to the prospect of actually being heard,and line up with their trusted parents
so that they might best share their miniature amazing worldviews
Riddles and songs and poems and stories flowed like honey on sandwiches
(there is no limit in the world of imagination nation,and
time was almost up before a prodigy or two emerged
to speak to their own generation in pre- and after-words
Isabella Taylor shared sonnets with panache
Max his mathematical bent,and time went so fast
the room was filled with those awaiting wonder
in the form of the annual Children's Anthology
so Lady Blue(in charge of bubbles,shakers and colors)
changed costume in time for another miracle of children-
sharing their creativities in front of elder generations
And Captain Color could retire secure in the knowledge
that after each generation of wonder
another new wave is surfing enthusiastically after
even,endless,anon-Lady Blue shines on!
