Wreath ………………………….… A simple wreath made from white pine boughs
Various flowers, leaves, and berries … A few simple adornments on the wreath
TIME: Winter
SETTING: A gardener’s workshop
Hey everyone. Looks like we get to hang out together. This is so cool to end up as a wreath and not compost. Hey, gardener/florist lady, that tickles. Watch my berries, please, I don’t want to lose any. Over here, can you tuck me in a little tighter? I have a fear of falling.
Welcome, all you flowers, leaves, and berries. Oh, and the pine cones, too. I’m pleased to have you all on board. If everyone could just hang on tight now…
Okay everyone. Hang on. Look pretty. Oh, look. Here comes someone we might want to go home with. Smile, whisper “Merry Christmas”.
Oh my blooming radishes. She chose us. This is exciting. I wonder where our new home is going to be? Oh, I sure hope it is a pretty door. Everyone hold tight, she’s carrying us off. Whee. This is fun.
Now don’t be afraid little leaves and berries and dried flowers. It’s only going to be dark for a little bit while we are in the trunk of her car. Stay close.
We’re here. Everyone, look pretty. Oh no! Is that one of those self-stick hooks? She’s not really going to hang us with that is she?
I don’t like this. That hook isn’t going to stay. Wreath, you should have gone on a diet.
Hey, no one likes a skinny wreath. I like to think I’m seasonably plump.
Oh dear, is everyone okay? Help! Help! We’ve fallen and we need some help getting up.
Whew, that was a close call. This new hook is much better. It’s very sturdy. I think it will hold us for the entire six months that we are supposed to last. Is everyone here? Is everyone okay?
We are fine. I think. That sure was exciting. Okay, everyone, remember why we are here. Together now, let’s practice. Welcome. Happy Holidays. Merry Christmas. Hi. Come back and see us again. Welcome.

Exciting! Suspenseful! You will laugh and you will hold your breath with fear! But the happy ending is just what we hope for.

Anyone can see that your chosen wreath is very dramatic and beautiful. I think such a drama queen might have wished for more than a one act play, but I guess a six month run makes up for all that. Happy Holidays!

That wreath is gorgeous! No wonder it gets its own one act play. (Clapping.)
