Thursday,Nov 19 2009, 02:03:51 PMJoey & Myrtle
The tortoise and the turtle
were named Joey and Myrtle
and though they were cousins of a sort
not from the same shop were they bought
Now it happened that on one sunny day
Myrtle came to the pond where Joey lay
basking in the sun to warm before a swim
but when she came into view he had another whim
Being slightly less than full of guile
he promptly came to chat with her a while
and was not too shy to nudge her shiny shell
for that she liked him he thought that he could tell
But when he asked her to come for a swim
her answer quite deeply horrified him
“Swimming is simply not good for my skin”
at which he blinked with mouth silently gaping
"Not swim?" he finally found the breath to gasp
"then how do you fish" he took her to task
she responded "No fish is in my diet"
"I just eat salad stuff, you should try it"
Such a thing Joey had never known
so he went to swim just on his own
to contemplate this strange diet Myrtle chose
eating weeds that would have tickled his nose
Where is the fun in that he thought
I enjoy chasing till fish are caught
but those salads seem like weeds to me
and have no movement I can see
All this time Myrtle was chomping leaves
under the pleasant shelter of some trees
a mixed salad left out for her to munch
when her owner was preparing lunch........

Rhyming couplets - an old short form of poetry that I've been playing with recently, these are examples I've penned in the iambic pentameter format (10 syllables per line) as used by early exponents like John Donne.

11/8/2009 5:21 PMDiscover Islam
Hi everybody. i hope you all are fine.
1 St of All i want say that we respect all religions because simply i believe we have the same god. Having different believes that shouldn't keep us away. we should accept the other point of view as long as no harm from this.
2 nd thing i want to say is that the aim of this group is not to make any one converts to Islam. because the rule is you have your believes and i have mine so no harm. the aim of this group is just to make us closer. to correct the wrong view that you have about Islam or that your media put inside your brain. you can accept or refuse. but you should give me your reasons. we can discuss.you can ask and i will try to answer as possible as i can . Then we build new way of connection new way of understanding between people no matter their color no matter their religions. Because simply we all are human. So Lets Draw Better Life Full Of Love And Safety Away From Racism And Intolerance.
It will not take much time to enter and have a look. You should check before judge something.
so Help Us In Building This new World With Love And Respect.
