The venue is set, as the actors prepare to take the stage. Remnants of old loom by, as each takes his cue. A hush surrounds the audience, as the atmosphere changes to the scene of the day. The actors tread the stage once more, gallant and proud, heads held high as the scene unfolds. Brandishing their costumes gallantly and tireless they move forward. The scene is set, as crumpled men of old take their wares of parchments anew, for act two, scene two is the way of the day. Their noble crowns still intact, each nods to the audience as they quietly take their place ready to perform. The audience is in cheer, for they have returned, unscathed, untarnished and wiser. The pages turn, and the story begins, a gentle hush of serenity fills the air as the act unfolds. Soon it will be time to bring the curtain down. The lights will go out and the stage will be empty again, yet each in his heart will carry the gift, and the actors will go home, never to return for their work is finished. The doors have closed and the lights have gone out. The stage is silent now ‘Still’ voices are heard ....deep within....... as the pages slowly turn. The actors thread woven within a parchment of fineness as the book gently closes. George |

Wow, I found this most beautiful, dear Georgek. A book is indeed like a stage for we imagine all the scenes vividly .... Wonderful, insightful write. Love, Margherita |
