Remembering How to Play

Games People Played - Part 2

I did not set out to collect games or game pieces...

Like so many other of my "collections," it just happened.

Some of them I have bought with the intention to use in art.

Then I find myself not wanting to use them.

You can't HAVE your game pieces and SELL them, too.

Other games I bought for a good price because they were cool.

SO I stick them away in a closet until I figure out 

just what in the world I will do with them.


I'd like to use them decoratively, maybe. 
Or I COULD play them. Maybe.
Though most are just odd pieces - 
the others were lost long ago.

I love the graphic quality of game pieces, 
and the fact that they may have letters or numbers on them.

And these really look GOOD in some art, wouldn't they?

They're like scrabble tiles, only black wood. I have no idea

what game they were. Does anyone recognize them?

But I KNOW you know what these are. 

These are wooden. Probably made for children.

Somewhere in my hoarder garage, I have some

ivory ones made of some old plastic stuff. 

They're much more refined than these...

...but probably not as old as these thicker wooden ones 

of which I only have a few.

Maybe I should include them in some assemblages?

There are not enough to play anymore. 

They would just sit in my garage and take up space.

That way, they can bee enjoyed in a new way. And

maybe I can make one for myself, just to remember them.

Word for the Day:

Deuteronomy 8:18

But remember the LORD your God, 

for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth,

 and so confirms his covenant, 

which he swore to your forefathers, as it is today. 

May you remember well today. 

May you always remember how to play the game.
