Glasses

The word Glasses caught my eye this week.

 

Glasses

A pair of spectacles

Drinking vessels

 

What comes to mind?

Reading glasses. Sunglasses. Seeing clearly.

Cheers! Setting the table. Celebrations.

A summer’s evening soundtracked by clinking glasses, cutlery and chatter.

Wine glasses. Polishing glasses.

Singing glasses.

“… a kind of gathering, a resonance that’s neither

glass nor air, but a new place between.

Its high sound fills the kitchen like a prayer bell.” – From Jeff Phelps’ Wine Glasses

 

Where might this week’s word take you?

If you could sit and have a glass of something with anyone from history, who would it be and what would you ask them?

Try writing it as if it were a journal entry.

Picture yourself sitting with them, setting out a glass for them and you. Pouring a drink.

What would be your first question?

Why would you ask them that?

Imagine what their response would be. Was it as expected?

 

As always, we love to see what you come up with, if you’d like to share. And if you’d like to share it in our weekly Note and Journal, please send it to me.
