Gather Groups -- [SPECIAL VISIT to Poetry Please Gather Group]
Artistic Minds®Member Tracey W. is the Owner of Poetry Please
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Our ART JOURNAL COLLABORATION PROJECT has been extended through the end of the month of JUNE, 2008 [because so many members expressed interest and want to participate].
Between now and JUNE, WE will open up our minds to CREATE. One way to help us along with this process is to travel around and take in some of the gifts and talents that WE may have been missing out on because of our busy day to day routines.
WE have so many NEW MEMBERS from all three participating Gather Groups that would like to JOIN in . . . and the month of JUNE seems fair to everyone. It gives everyone a chance to JOIN IN!
The is the 2nd Journey in our Suitcase Travels. During our Suitcase Travels (somewhat like our Gallery Grawls) WE will be able to pick up creative insight, gain friendships and learn what it means to share our gifts and talents. WE will also learn to take a deeper look at our fellow Gatherites.
During our ART JOURNAL COLLABORATION PROJECT, WE will learn compassion and LOVE. WE will learn to truly SHARE and not hoard. WE will learn to LISTEN to other people's point of view. WE will learn to breathe before we respond.
And, most importantly, WE will truly see each other as FRIENDS. WE will learn that there is so much for us to SEE and experience STILL. WE will learn about various other art forms outside of our own familiar artistic zone.
With all that being said, BREATHE ~ pick up your ARTSY SUITCASE . . .

and LET'S GO! . . .
First, let us travel over to visit Tracey W.'s Gather Group, "Poetry Please" . . .
Tracey held the First Poetry Please Collaborative Renga -- take a look at how it turned out!
It was wonderful to behold as it unfolded. For all the Poets and Poetic Masters of the Gather Groups participating in our ART JOURNAL COLLABORATION PROJECT, Tracey invites you to join Poetry Please as another Gather Group wherein you may share your Poetics and meet other Poets.
