Default MMTPT307~June 17, 2014~The Ocean Can Calm the Troubled Soul

Welcome to Teapot Tuesday
the Sisterhood of the Traveling Teaparty
and Challenge #307


The Ocean Can Calm the Troubled Soul



Note: Anyone is welcome to play! You automatically become a Teapotter the first time you play in our challenge. Also, you do not have to write a story. You just have to be inspired by the teapot or by the story about this week's location! Have fun! If this is your first Teapot Tuesday Challenge, please mention that in your commentary so we can be sure to greet you properly, in pure Teapot Tuesday fashion! Your participation in Destination Station is 100% voluntary and not at all required. Just have fun!


As The Gull Flies
Glistening sweeps of translucent liquid
Moist the sands into thick sea mud.
Shells and pebbles awash the shore,
As above, the Gull flies.

Rasping breeze scented with salt,
Pushing forwards the grains of fossilized grit
Into the path on the open road
As above, the Gull flies.

A dimming sky turns seasons in hours;
Summer, fall, winter then thaw.
Seaside towns are distant fires,
As above, the Gull flies.

Water weaving, gentle and cool,
Tugged by the grasp of Sister Moon.
She speaks "Tomorrow morn shall cycle again,
As above, the Gull Flies."

Talezya


Challenge Translation:
Bring calming scenes and comforting phrases. Time to support and care for this mother of 2.

Destination Stattion:
This week our cards are going to Houston Texas to Chrissy. She was brought to our attention by SCSr Gulfcoaststamper Lisa.
to find out why as well as get the address to mail your card, please visit post #410 in the Teapot Tuesday Destination Station thread. Please remember that just because you participate in a Teapot Tuesday challenge that is combined with a card drive request, it does not mean that you are REQUIRED to send your cards. It is totally 100% voluntary!

Here is a quick link to MMTPT#307


Be sure to you use KEYWORD MMTPT307 in your upload and post a comment here so we can all see your card!

Ever want to get a jump on next week's challenge card? SCS has given Sheri (KSNurse) permission to create an email Teapot Tuesday Cheater Group and email the challenge out on the Saturday before the Tuesday of the challenge so you girls can have the weekend to make your card. Send her a pm with your email address if you wanna be a Cheater!

If you are confused about these challenges, see the first sticky post of this thread for more information. There is also a directory of individual challenges.

This is close to home as we went through aggressive breast cancer with my sister 17 years ago. Sadly this is a different outcome, as my sister survived. My heart goes out to this young family. Here is MINE

I won't be doing a teapotter card because I just sent one out to them a week or so ago. Early one morning when I couldn't sleep I read about this woman and her sister and I made a card then and mailed it out. I will continue good thoughts and prayers for her.

WT484 Ocean Calm
Here's mine. I feel so sad for her; we have a friend here who's breast cancer has also metastasised to her brain, it's horrid.

What a lovely poem, Sheri - thank you for finding that.

Re-posting. Tried to change the title & it removed my image & messed everything up! Oh well, lesson learned! Here's my card.

I just got my card returned - I hope nobody else had problems. I've very occasionally had cards returned before even though the address was 100% correct, so hopefully it was just a blip like that.
