‘Join the Dots’ – John connects with new friends and his creative side at Theatre Nemo

An inspiring poem from an inspiring Community Correspondent, John Dane. Building relationships and engaging in his creative passions have been key to John’s recovery. Here, he provides a snapshot of a typical day at the Join the Dots arts project run by Theatre Nemo.

Join the Dots

Meet new friends

We never want this day to end

All day long

We paint and sing

Lift a guitar

And pluck a string

Then it’s time

To have some lunch

Sit and chat

And eat and munch

Then it’s time to start again

Get inspired

Lift a pen

Then someone

Comes in to speak

We feel informed

We’ve hit our peaks

Now it’s time to say goodbye

The day now over

We have to fly
