Friday five - artworks edition

LInky link >here< to the community post
1. What is your favorite poem? Can you recite part of it from memory?
2. What is your favorite work of visual art? Can you sketch some of it from memory?
3. What is your favorite piece of music? Can you sing or hum any of it from memory? Bonus points if you can sing a line of harmony from it.
4. What is your favorite dance form? Can you dance it yourself, however badly, or is it something for which you are mostly a spectator?
5. What is your favorite work of literature? Have you committed any of it to memory?

1. Not a big fan of poetry unless it's light in tone and I don't need to debate the deeper meaning. I do love "Smart" by Shel Silverstein, though. Can I recite it from memory? Only the last couple of lines

2. Pierre August-Cot's The Storm. I have to go see it when I go to the Met. I can't sketch, draw or doodle diddly squat. My brain can see it like it's right in front of me but my hands can't create it


3. I love about any well-done version of Carol of the Bells. I can sing a line but I don't want to kill anyone.
4. Tribal fusion bellydance and yes I can. The one thing I can do of any artistic-type talent. Not spectacularly, mind you, but I can do it ok as long as I don't freeze up.
5. Harry Potter counts, right? Half Blood Prince is my favorite and while I don't have particular lines memorized, I know the story well.
