Christian quote: He who mistreats the most unfortunate among us, mistreats me—Jesus
Cruelty On Parade
He enjoys mocking the severely ill and lame
Cruelty unbridled that's his game
The Good Book he'll tout
"Don't dare call me a lout"
How dare he campaign in the glow of His name
—Robert Gorelick
The fool should hang his head in shame
For mocking those who’re ill or lame
He’ll get just reward
When facing the Lord
It’s simply just a waiting game
—Beryl Edmunds

Ship San Gabriel sailed from Portugal
wit brave navigator Pedro Alvares Cabral
strayed around
the cape of Boa Esperança
moved away from the coast of africa
so much until seeing the island of vera cruz,
he saw it was bigger land,
he called the land of the holy cross,
when he landed he saw that it was
even bigger... so immense
that could only be a country...
Later time he called it Brazil...!

Tell no lies
Sing no songs
No false praise
Oppose without violence
One can always
Get used to war
Mask no difficulties
Claim no easy
Victories
Know what you want
Cringe at fear
Attack not defend
Learn to walk
Rapidly
Don't run
Do more
Say less
Educate

Natasha will be going to Rio, most definitely,
Without a doubt, she won 2 golds in Belgium,
At the 2011 European Championships well tall,
In the freestyle grade II event and individual;
Then she set a Paralympic record no question,
When she rode in the 2012’s on horse Cabral,
To score 76.857%, and after that very elegantly,
Took another gold in the freestyle with vocality.
She was born in Hammersmith, busy London,
But when she was aged fourteen months only,
Got transverse myelitis, an inflammation spinal.
Baker was appointed MBE in 2013 for her gaul,
In equestrianism and for noting GOSH hospital.
