Persuasion
Participants, persuade this group with your fantastical dreams.
Everyone has treasure-troves of considerations for themes.
Respect each other’s ideas. Communicate well. Be kind.
Surprise us with garden imagery. We’ll keep all themes in mind.
Understandably, keeping to the standard budget. It’s tight.
Although, a particular donor might help if the theme’s right.
So, gather your thoughts, each take a few moments, persuade the team.
Ideally, by day’s end we will incorporate the theme.
One that will satisfy the new donor. Completely the best.
Nothing is off the proverbial table. Let’s pass this test.
