Paintings and Poems for the Hospice
   The St. Joseph Vinnies have also been busy this term creating artwork and poems to decorate the Hospice foyer and to bring hope and inspiration not only to the patients but also to their families.

   Here are photos of our 3D artwork that we hope will be uplifting...









   The Vinnies wrote the following poems to go with their artwork...

    Rise, float, drift, glide, fly, soar.
Above the earth; into the sky;
through the breeze; past the stars.
Leave behind worry, fear, trust,
friendship, happiness, thought.
But love, will remain in the heart.

Tegan Fleming


Drifting; gliding upward; above the clouds;
soaring towards the stars; past the moon;
into the Galaxy.
Waving to a rocket ship.
The earth now a small dot.
Leaving behind hardships, worries,
 disappointment, problems.
Feelings of peace, calmness, sadness,
grief, relief, joy.
A change.

Livia Fanselow


Float, soar, fly, travelling up,
Zig-zagging from cloud to cloud.
Above the earth; into the sky;
way up high; above the clouds;
above the stars; past Jupiter;
through flying comets.
Leave behind worries, problems,
challenges, frustrations, friendships,
relations, hard times, mistakes.
Feelings of peace, calmness, sadness,
grief, belief, tiredness.
A fresh start.

Kate Riley


Glide, float, soar, fly, rise, drift.
Above the earth; past the clouds; in the stars;
Floating to a sacred place.
Leave behind worries, problems, challenges,
frustrations, pressure, stress.
Feelings of love, friendship, happiness,
peace, sadness, calmness.
You will always be in your loved ones hearts.

Rachael Wakelin



Gently glide, float, fly, slowly soar.
Above the earth; into the sky; among the clouds;
Above the stars; onto the moon; into space.
Leave behind worries, challenges, trust,
frustration, problems, grief.
Feelings of peace, love, happiness,
calmness, sadness, kindness.
You will always be in your loved ones hearts.

Tallulah Daniels

Fly, float, gently moving, glide away.
In the sky; above the clouds; into space.
Feelings of peace, memories, happiness,
sadness, aloneness.
Leave behind problems, worries, challenges, fear.
Please take care.
