If I were...
Some of my friends have done this "If I were."
Here is my version and a fence angel:
If I were a month, I'd be September
If I were a day, I’d be Sunday
If I were a time of day, I’d be 5 a.m.
If I were a font, I’d be Santo Dumant
If I were a sea animal, I’d be a tropical fish
If I were a direction, I’d be up
If I were a piece of furniture,I'd be big pillow
If I were a liquid, I'd be water
If I were a gemstone, I'd be a quartz crystal
If I were a tree, I'd be a Palo Verde
If I were a tool, I'd be a paint brush
If I were a flower, I'd be a wild flower
If I were an element of weather,I'd be a sunny day
If I were a musical instrument, I'd be a guitar
If I were a color, I'd be sage green
If I were an emotion, I'd be LOVE.
If I were a fruit, I'd be an orange
If I were a sound, I'd be crunchy paper folding
If I were an element, I'd be Au.
If I were a car, I'd be an ATV
If I were a food, I'd be a fresh picked tomato with basil
If I were a place,I'd be Sedona
If I were a material, I'd be Egyptian cotton
If I were a taste, I'd be chocolate please
If I were a scent, fresh rain
If I were a body part,I'd be lungs
If I were a song, I'd be Somewhere over the Rainbow
If I were a bird, I'd be a dove
If I were a gift, I'd be an art book
If I were a city, I'd be San Francisco
If I were a door, I'd be open
If I were a pair of shoes, I'd be flip flops
If I were a poem, I'd be..
I dwell in Possibility--
A fairer House than Prose--
More numerous of Windows--
Superior--for Doors--
Of Chambers as the Cedars--
Impregnable of Eye--
And for an Everlasting Roof
The Gambrels of the Sky--
Of Visitors--the fairest--
For Occupation--This--
The spreading wide my narrow Hands
To gather Paradise--

Please feel free to try this your answers might surprise you.
That is so interesting. A lot of the things you would like to be , I'd like to be. I think I will give it a stab maybe next week some time. Thanks for sharing this, I appreciate what you want to be. Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteYes I listened to the song and I love it. I was saddened when I learned he passed, but he left us this beauty.
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely a creative person with not run of the mill answers. It would take me a LONG while to answer these intelligently!
ReplyDeleteI'm saddened to learn Ole Iz has passed. His one simple rendition of such a classic touches the heart.
Oh what a fabulous video! I hadn't heard of Iz before and I am sad to know that he is no longer alive. Thank you for sharing it, Gemma.
ReplyDeleteI love your fence angel! Did you make her? xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteLove your list, Gemma. It helps me to know you better, too. :) I enjoyed listening to the lovely rendition of Somewhere Over the Rainbow as I read. Artists leave such beauty in their wake, to linger on in the consciousness for who knows how long... and you are no exception! Many times I've remembered a piece of your artwork seen here.
ReplyDeleteThis was cool and I learned a lot about you. I might have to try this sometime soon.
