All My Boats by Karima Hoisan & Dale Innis

Posted on November 12, 2023 by Karima Hoisan

So I’m going happily insane making these videos, losing myself in the worlds, trying to figure how to capture them and keep them under 8 minutes (which has not been easy)
Do you feel I have been over-feeding you all on my YouTubes?
I know they are coming fast & furious, but they are a mixed variety of plates, so hopefully I can entice you to see this one too.
This world was built in 2016 right after I wrote the poem. I have been performing it in the virtual since then and always to this music. I knew they would slap a copyright claim on it, but I HAD to use it as it is the ONLY music that fits for me and has much sentimental value. I avoided getting a strike and it seems it is only banned in Russia (where I bet I don’t have many followers)
Please watch in 4K Fullscreen and turn up the sound. I do suggest you watch it on YouTube. It is a Very colorful, reflective world, so sunglasses could be needed:)  I hope you enjoy it. Let us know, Likes and comments here and on YouTube are always welcome.
Footnote: As I say in the YouTube  info,  written back in 2016… Dale Innis is also very much part of the creation of my latest and 12th world on Kitely. Without his scripting and his ability to bring my vision to life, this world would never leave the dock:)  Thank you Dale for everything!
Get ready to sit comfortably for over 7 minutes and …ENJOY!!!

    Gorgeous! This is such a breathtakingly colorful world, and you’ve captured it beautifully. (So happy the scripts are still working too! 😁)

    Thank you for saying that, Maggie:) I think it’s just been my way of being, for most of my life:) I was one of those only children who was a “great pretender” haha:) Seems not much has changed in my later years:):)

      Thanks David and you’re right, it does take time to build these worlds. Something I started doing in my mid sixties and luckily am still motivated. In the virtual we can literally breathe life into a poem. Dale’s scripting talents as a software engineer have been invaluable

    Karima, the only thing I would like to know is……What really floats your boat ?
    Just curious. Or is that too personal ?

        I just watched your 7 minutes of your boats again. What a talent you have ! Now if you can tell me which Rock and Roll Band the following lyrics are from, Then I think I’m in love !
        ” Are you sitting comfortably ? Let Merlin cast his spell…..”

    Aww… back at you Karima. We are on board the same boat. … Yes !
    I enjoyed your photography. It sounded like you were putting alot of pressure on yourself. You seem to be a very talented, gifted and complex woman. I am impressed!
    I wish you joy, peace, happiness and contentment. I sense that you deserve it all.
    Always your friend, If you had more time on your hands, I would send you my blog info, but I do not think you have the time ! You are creative and busy. I admire that.
    Just keep being you Karima !

    Marc

    Moody Blues…Bingo ! I am in Love ! Sight unseen. I turned 69 years old on September 25th.
    I don’t need your birthdate. You are timeless. ( Also not polite to ask a lady her age )
    Which album ? “On the Threshold of a Dream” I think therefor I am…. at least I think I must be…not positive though. You made my day. : ) Thank you Karima.
    Marc… on the island of Raiatea, French Polynesia ( The Sacred Island )
    We have a stone temple complex on this island named TAPUTAPUATEA
    The Hawaiians came from this island 1400 years ago. The Mauri’s of New Zealand came from this island and also the Marquesan Islanders.
    Sweet Dreams

    My dearest friend, I wrote my long comment on this amazing piece by you and Dale on Gobblers. I understood it on such a profound level that it made me cry. You two are something else.
