Think straight, be here now...

Bend like starlight round a sun

Know not where or when.

sink and roll and press again

Hey did you see that!

As a matter of fact, yes!

I did it in church!

 

 

:lol: Once, when the grape was forgotten and it was announced that we would have communion with water, I slipped out and got grape juice at nearby convenience store and managed to swap the water in the pitcher for grape juice, using some of the Magician's diversionary tricks. The choir, in particular, all gasped loudly when the Minister, later during communion, lifted the pitcher high and poured out some of the deep wine beauty of the contents into the chalice. :blink: Gradually laughter broke out and filled the church!!! :lol:
