Mary Makes the Sun Shine Bright
Mary called for the clouds with sweet song and steps formed before them. Michael’s mouth fell open like a codfish as they climbed high into the sky until they were welcomed by a sparkling table illuminated by the bright beaming sun.
Uncle Albert remarked that the weather always seemed to be on Mary’s side as he took his seat at the table and gawped in awe at the resplendent display. The Banks family staff had been polishing the silver for weeks and the garden had been emptied of red roses, Mary’s favourite.
The table was one of a kind, every detail considered and meticulously chosen by Mary from things she had gathered over hundreds of years. It was quite a moment when she began producing these treasures from a carpet bag, each piece accompanied by a story, preserved in her memory, and saved with love for this day. Chairs from her childhood garden, glasses from Paris, lace from Athens and plates she was rather confident came from Versailles.
The newly joined family and Albert the Dog took their seats and after a few moments of polite conversation the air was alive with the bustle of penguins delivering plate after plate of delectable food. Glasses were filled, emptied, and filled again, the atmosphere merry and joyous.
