and I were so excited for this week’s Parlour Games because Urania
invented a new game to play! We are calling it “Dreamspeak Tales”
whereby each player flips the dreamspeak cards and uses the picture
that appears (i.e., cat) in a sentence to form a collective story!
Our clever players caught on right away and even helped hone our new
game.
As Parlour
Games tradition has it, I recited a limerick to get things started:
Welcome to
Parlour Games in our rose garden
Except for the Crash Family, I beg your pardon.
They hide in the green leaves
Then they kidnap us like thieves.
If they get me I hope my green helmet will harm them!
hehehe!
We began the
game, players flipped the cards and used the following underlined
words to make our stories (it was extra fun when folks flipped and
got the same card):
Story #1
The little round sphere, looking like a ball of Yarn rolled down the
hallway. It rolled past the lounge door where Fluffy the cat was stretching
after a long morning sleeping in the sun. Up in a nearby tree, the
owl was staring to see if the ball would wake up the cat. The cat
found that an open chest was a nice place to sleep. (Except when the
chest was closed there was nowhere for him to peek!) Walking through
the woods I found a cat hanging upside down by a rope, in a tree,
howling! Lovely ferns abound in our jungle.
THE END
Story #2
I took my lil puppy for a long jungle walk. Of course I had to leave
my computer unattended. An upside down Owl swang from a tree and wildly
beckoned me to hoot, hoot wee!!! Up in the dark sky there were several
twinkling spheres. I tried to make out shapes in the stars but all
I could see were hearts. When suddenly in the heavens, I saw the shape
of a cat! My heart was beating very fast. As I finished my artichoke
heart... it made my heart beat even faster! But as I stared at the
stars, they suddenly formed a skull shape. The end is near...
THE END
Story #3
My prize winning owl flipped over. Just as sudden as he turned over,
the owl turned back over again! My owl is very dear to my heart. But
closer to my heart is my dear Teddy. When I can't sleep I sit in the
window with my teddy and watch the owl flying in the moonlight. And
my little puppy watches in the window with me. If I still cannot sleep
I will get on Dreamscape in
my computer and chat with my friends. Because my heart belongs to
Dreamscape!
THE END
What fun we
had! After a big round of applause, and lots of thanks to Urania for
our new game, we gave out our looking glass appreciation gifts. Please
join me, Muse Thalia and Muse Urania every Thursday at 4:00 WAT in
Morpheus Rose Garden East for more fun in the Parlour!
