Pregnancy Aching Legs

Trolleybus filled with poetry

Logs "City of Poetry" is a trolley equipped with wings . Not without reason! During the festival, trolley-buses on some streets of Lublin give wings to kids who read poetry with poems in them.
The winged trolley, will there be in a comic book on the gate of the Saxon Gardens, whose theme is "City of Poetry". The author is a Jacob Kijuc, known as author of the comic book "construct" (he was also one of this year's nominees cranes). Right next to a bus line 158, a trolley, which is between the hours of 15 to 17 resounds with poetry.
If you want to see how the horse looks like such a means of communication, it is enough to get tagged with the logo of the festival, trolley outside. Inside you will find several children from the corner House of Culture "source" who read poetry. How do passengers react? Trolley ride those perfectly familiar with the festival, but most are not aware of getting on, the ongoing shares. There are those who do not pay any attention to poetry around them, they are engrossed in conversation with traveling companion, or do not want to reveal their emotions and pretend indifference. Most, however, very like it. "Congratulations, great idea," "Good variety to the usual sightseeing trolley," "Such a journey is a lot nicer than usual" - the voices of some of the passengers.
It happened also that the performances of the kids were rewarded with spontaneous applause. Also likes the idea of \u200b\u200ba trolleybus driver, who have in recent years had the opportunity to lead such a trolley bus. He admits that every day rather not read poetry, but likes to listen to what children read. "Maybe young people will thus read the book?" - He asks.
interesting about this incredible journey, "says Adrian KRAC trolley, tutor kids, which we also meet at the Table of Poetry, or hear in the rack during the festival:" Riding makes me think of the boat, because the trolley awful swing. Crawling like a ship sailing the city collect from different districts of Lublin and time Poetry on the ship traveling through the winding streets and crawl holes in the road. I hope that the journey ends well. "
Unfortunately, in tram is quite loud, especially that poetry is read during peak hours, and traffic on the streets quite big. It is true that kids read poems into the microphone, but even so their voices are disappearing at times in the local dialect and street noise, which may obstruct passengers receive. Fortunately, you can see how many cranes his neck, listening, and not wanting to miss a single word poet.
most remarkable, however, is looking at the faces people, which, under the influence of words been told him, suddenly there is a smile. Many people are simply moved,. Carolina, one of the girls involved in the action, correctly observes: "I like that people through poetry can return to their younger years." But in each of us is sitting a child ...
repertoire is not too demanding, because the girls' favorite authors are John and Julian Brzechwa Tuwim, because I read their works. There were so "Dziwaczki Ducks" and "Zosia Samosia," or simply a classic Polish children's poetry. Despite the passage of time, their work continues to enjoy universal popularity, although one of pasażerek stated that would prefer to listen to more contemporary poets, poems, and other dreams that accompanied her in tram tracks Agnieszka Osiecka. Who knows? Maybe one day those dreams come true.
most fun of all of the action, however, have the kids with the "sources". Full of energy, tired of reading without any signs of fatigue. When the trolley reaches the final stop do not want to go, but finally agree to take a break. Kids lit is to act - Julia says: "Reading people is a very interesting", and her colleague King said: "The idea I like, because we can show people that on a normal day can also listen to poetry." Poetry becomes available in this manner for each inhabitant.
worth a ride on the trolley bus line 158 on Friday, because the next chance will still take years. Sigh ... too bad that a trip to Lublin trolleybus streets does not look so great every day!
