Hiya Mr. Sanborn. Random gushing of heartfelt admiration inbound! This is moving. Your skill is, to this layman and newbie to ASL, magical. Viewing this video is part of my ASL teacher's curriculum on Classifiers and I think, as an aside, her way of showing us the rich tapestries that can be woven with your/her language. Your storytelling had me feeling the morning breeze, sun on my face, caused me to burst out with laughter and had me welling up with tears for an imaginary squirrel. I am a babe in the woods on the use, Culture, and.... just the everything of this experience, the life. You, sir, have helped open my eyes to an entire world of beautiful expression and understanding. Thank you.
Beautif story and great message. We have a lot to learn from animals!! It amazes me that you only use few signs in the whole story, the rest were classifiers. Definitely my favorite part of ASL!!
Basically, he woke up one morning, got his coffee, went outside. The sun was just coming up, the colors were beautiful, trees swaying, humming bird eating. He saw a squirrel in a tree. The squirrel began collecting sticks building a nest. He worked and worked, and almost finished when the wind blew very hard and blew the nest out if the tree. The nest exploded on the ground. The squirrel went back up the tree to find one stick before it too fell. The squirrel came down, ate some (nuts I believe), came to him and said, "Don't give up!" The squirrel then started making his nest again.
Wow.. awesome. Except for the mouthing of "Coffee" and the "based on true story" statement with mouthing. Get rid of those two parts and I'd be more pleased. We don't need that sort of explicitness in poetry of this type.
Yeah, it would have been a pure poem without mouthing. I couldn't help it as bilingualism was what brought me to this poem. There's always way to remaster for a poem in one single language. Your feedback is helpful. Thanks :)
My ASL students loved it and so do I!! Beautiful use of ASL classifiers!!!
