This slide show represents a web search and presentation project inspired by poet Rives 4 o’clock in the morning work. This is the teacher’s attempt to share an example for students and also to provide entertainment for herself and demonstrate how ideas expand, permutate, juxtapose, and move outside the box.

But when for them they say they'll die, Believe them not, they do but lie.

‘ The Starry Night ’ by Anne Sexton That does not keep me from having a terrible need of — shall I say the word — religion. Then I go out at night to paint the stars. – Vincent Van Gogh in a letter to his brother The town does not exist except where one black-haired tree slips up like a drowned woman into the hot sky. The town is silent. The night boils with eleven stars. Oh starry starry night! This is how I want to die. It moves. They are all alive. Even the moon bulges in its orange irons to push children, like a god, from its eye. The old unseen serpent swallows up the stars. Oh starry starry night! This is how I want to die: into that rushing beast of the night, sucked up by that great dragon, to split from my life with no flag, no belly, no cry.

“Before we invented civilization our ancestors lived mainly in the open out under the sky. Before we devised artificial lights and atmospheric pollution and modern forms of nocturnal entertainment we watched the stars. There were practical calendar reasons of course but there was more to it than that. Even today the most jaded city dweller can be unexpectedly moved upon encountering a clear night sky studded with thousands of twinkling stars. When it happens to me after all these years it still takes my breath away.” ― Carl Sagan, Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in SpaceCarl SaganPale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space

Starry Night A creative heart, obsessed with satisfying this dormant and uncaring society you have given them the stars at night and u have given them Bountiful Bouquets of Sunflowers but 4 u there is only contempt and though u pour yourself into that fame and present it so proudly this world could not accept your masterpieces from the heart. So on that starry night u gave 2 us and u took away from us the one thing we never acknowledged your life. © by owner. Added by volu - See more at:

As the universe expands, so does my 4 am model project…shiny eyes that grew from a TED talk I love; then starry night popped up, and stars in eyes joined in near the end. I’ve looked for a range of voices and art, but seeing connections develop and come together is the joy of this project. I hope it will be for you too.

It’s New Year’s Day and you can guess what’s on TV at our house…and perhaps yours. This song just came on, and guess what I thought of in relation to starry night…once it starts it never ends…in fact, when I showed it to you, my th graders, back at school you (i. e. Destiny—Twinkle, twinkle and O Holy Night)) thought of some additions, fixed a spelling error, and inspired my mind to race to Shakespeare, Hair, the Bible…so I’m going to shinny up the tree of creativity and visit my project more this week.

Come, night; come, Romeo; come, thou day in night; For thou wilt lie upon the wings of night Whiter than new snow on a raven’s back. Come, gentle night, come, loving, black-brow’d night, Give me my Romeo; and, when he shall die, Take him and cut him out in little stars, And he will make the face of heaven so fine That all the world will be in love with night And pay no worship to the garish sun.

“ This goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory, this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire, why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours …” Hamlet, William Shakespeare be.com/watch?v=fs txNFdQWZQ

I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Genesis 22:17
