Brainking is no #1
Reasonable rules are put in place
Always use positive language
Inside all age fellowsips
Never cheat on a game
Kings of the sight are fencer and liquid
I like to go on all day long
No other site is quite the same
Gamers no this sight is the best

Ruling sight is brainking.com
Underneath are all the other sites
Lovely members are always here
Everlasting fun and excitement
So thats why Brainkings no #1

Subject: Valentine Day Poetry

Today, on Valentine’s Day,
I remember bespectacled Alf from Montego Bay
Who started with eight for a hundred and four,
And with his twin Sonny got many more;

As that 50’s summer grew,
Their flight and guile blossomed anew,
And Hutton hemmed and Yardley hawed,
And Sheppard exchanged Lord’s for Lord!

And still they probed, thick and thin,
And had the world immersed in spin,
Aah! Those little friends of mine,
Ramadhin and Valentine.

Subject: Re: Haikus

瀬人様: I too, love Haiku... I believe it was
John Barrymore ( actor, wittisist d. 1946), who said once at a very fancy gala in the 30's, 'If you cannot say it in 10 words or less, you've said too much'..One that I wrote after realizing something I'd of rather not:
" Love can break
Any Habit.....
but Lust"

Subject: Re: Haikus

Ditty^Doo: No offence, but haikus are supposed to be poems of three lines consisting of 5-7-5 syllables, speaking about nature in an allegoric-philosophoc way. (I know, what I wrote cannot really be seen as a haiku, but that was before I understood what haikus are all about. Nowadays, I write my haikus completely different, and mainly in Hebrew.)

Subject: You are a Positive Thinker

Modified by Haridaspal (19. March 2007, 06:04:43)

Does the following qualify as poetry?

SILVER LINING

As you were walking down the road,
You looked up at the sky,
A crow messed on your face,
As it flew across, high.
And you didn't curse, or scream
Or even let out a sigh,
But just murmured to yourself,
"Thank God, pigs can't fly."

16. March 2007, 16:14:06

Subject: Re: You are a Positive Thinker

Haridaspal: Well, it can be interpreted as such, but I find it to be a rather vulgar form of poetry. (Oh Buddha, I sound so gay...)

17. March 2007, 14:18:04

Subject: Vulgarity

When the dying Nelson
Was kissed by Horatio at Trafalgar,
Was it simply passe,
Or was it considered vulgar?

Subject: They?

To err is human
That's what they say
Forgiveness divine
For that we pray

The grass is greener
on the other side
That's what they say
but they run and hide

More blessed to give
Than to receive
Who are 'they'
Who know these things?

My Precious Child

The greatest gift we will ever know
is a child, born to love and grow.
Conception is a miracle in itself;
the start of new life and good health.

Such a treasure your precious child is,
who will thrive on every hug and kiss.
Hold them close and sing them songs;
they will only be a child for so long.

They may not always smell pure and sweet,
a dirty diaper or a dampened sheet.
But with a loving cuddle and a beautiful smile,
the joys of parenthood are all worth while.

"Thank you Lord for our precious child."
