what a show!

 

Seussical, and the CFS Village


the Middle School pulled off a magnificent show today,

Seussical the Musical,

once again a community was created,

built on individuals being unique

and true to what amazing work 

each could release from their efforts,

so that the sum of the parts

is of multiplication more than of simple addition,

so that simultaneously the self shines bright,

both as a part and as a whole,


something lived onstage today,

and will live, and thrive, a few more times,


we should celebrate the village

that pulled it all together,

and we should celebrate every individual person

who gave their all,

so that each shared performance created a life,

like all lives,

that flared bright, 

and then will pass away.
