Dutch lullaby

Wynken, Blynken, and Nod one night
Sailed off in a wooden shoe,--
Sailed on a river of misty light
Into a sea of dew.
"Where are you going, and what do you wish?"
The old moon...

Solitude

Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone.
For the sad old earth must borrow it's mirth,
But has trouble enough of it's own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;...

IN FLANDERS FIELDS

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns...

Call Me Not Back from the Echoless Shore

Why is your forehead furrowed with care?
What has so soon mingled frost in your hair?
Why are you sorrowful, why do you weep?
Why do you ask me to...

Rock Me to Sleep

"Backward, turn backward, O Time, in your flight,
Make me a child again just for to-night!
Mother, come back from the echoless shore,
Take me again to your heart as of yore;...

Little Boy Blue

The little toy dog is covered with dust,
But sturdy and stanch he stands;
And the little toy soldier is red with rust,
And his musket molds in his hands.
Time was when the...

Arabian Proverb


He who knows not and knows not that he knows not,
He is a Fool- Shun him;
He who knows not and knows that he knows not,
He is Simple- Teach him;
He who knows and knows...

Legend of the White Stallion.

But there was one 'mong the rest
stood nobler, prouder, beauty blessed
and swifter than the deer;
His white mane streamed and wisdom gleamed
from dark eyes...

With Love from a Lonely Dog...


I wish some-one would tell me
what it is that I've done wrong.
Why do I have to stay chained up
and left alone so long?

They seemed so glad to have me

What's Real?...


While the cloth rabbit and the stuffed horse were lying
on the bedroom floor, the rabbit asked-
"What is Real? Does it mean having a stick-out handle and things inside of you...

Walking with Lulu in the Wood...


The wood is a good place to find the other road down to that hollow which rocks a little with the same motion as my soul. Come on, Lulu, follow me and be careful...

The Ring-tailed Wowser...


They ask me "What's a Wowser?"...

Well, a Wowser is the critter that the nester's little daughter is afraid will come and git her;
in case she fails to wash her...

A Dog sits Waiting.

A dog sits waiting in the cold autumn sun.
To faithful to leave, to frightened to run.
He's been here for days now with nothing to do
but sit by the road waiting for...

Bummer of 41.

One day when I was forty-one
I ate an extra sticky bun,
And in that moment it did seem
I went from thin to broad-in-beam.

Like that, my hard abdomen branched.
My tight...

Stray Cat...


Oh what unhappy twist of fate
has brought you homeless to my gate?

The gate where once another stood
to beg for shelter, warmth and food-
For from that day I ceased to be ...

Hello every-one,
It's been a while since I posted although I've been a member these many years. I've so enjoyed bigbigforums and learned so many neat things on so many different topics. This is my...

Totally agree, Carolina_E ! "Lady" GaGa ought to be gagged! Puts a whole new spin on trashy.
I would have much rather have seen Susan Boyle get to meet the Queen.
At least she truly wanted to...

I was totally bummed that they killed off John Locke also. He was a great character-he went through so much and believed so hard in the island. Doesn't seem fair.

The description of the new NCIS show sounds alot like the Unit premise- undercover teams, etc...

I'd rather they just kept the Unit... LL COOL J is not my idea of must see T.V either.

Found this at another site. It was pretty funny so had to share...

I won $10 last month from Surveys.com.

I'm here, the night-owl.

Thanks for the help, Janelle! :)

O.k, will some-one tell me how to send this page to a friend's e-mail? This is sooo funny, I've got to share it but I don't think copy and paste will work because I won't get the pictures......

Hi Sweetberries,
just got home and read your post. So sorry to hear about your dad. I'm glad that you were able to talk to the daughter and get some info about your grandparents. I did some...
