<\/a>When the gigantic door doth open<\/em> Her music doth glide over the valleys<\/em> As long as we can hear and see<\/em> \u2014\u201cSpreckels Singeth,\u201d a sonnet written by Dr. Carol Williams for \u201cCelebrity Sonnet Presentations\u201d at The Old Globe, Oct. 12, 2015<\/em><\/p>\n I had the pleasure of presenting this at the Old Globe Theatre here in San Diego. I grew up with Shakespeare and always struggled with him \u2014 great guy but for me, and most of my classmates, we would have rather read something else.<\/p>\n As one looks back, gosh as we get older, we view things in a different light. Anyway, for the Celebrity Sonnets Evening I ended on a sonnet my husband had chosen \u2014 No. 62 about egos and stuff. So I decided to write a sonnet for our beloved Spreckels organ. As we say here in the USA, \u201cenjoy!\u201d<\/p>\n On Sunday Nov. 29, I will have the youth Thanksgiving concert at the organ pavilion. Joining me on stage will be the three young winners of the Spreckels Organ Scholarships. These young artists are amazing and you will be wowed by them. Do come along if you can and support them.<\/p>\n This year has certainly passed quickly and I thank you readers for reading this column<\/a>. See you in December.

\nThis lion speaketh a roar for all<\/em>
\nAnd every being is awoken<\/em>
\nAnd I at the keyboards, am King of All<\/em><\/p>\n
\nShe singeth in every place<\/em>
\nHer sound doth glide into the galleys<\/em>
\nShe singeth for every grace<\/em><\/p>\n
\nThe Spreckels Organ is a gift to thee<\/em><\/p>\n<\/a>As the nights grow darker and with hopefully a spot of rain \u2014 hey we can always dream \u2014 the month of November is a great month of anticipation and there will be much festive music at the organ pavilion.<\/p>\n
