HAPPY THANKSIVING TO ALL AMERICANS OUT THERE.
Cluck put-purr kee kee went the turkeys in the back of Jim's truck. He was delivering them to neighboring vicinities for Thanksgiving. When he reached Tom's house he yellared "Turkeys for sale!" Tom had a peek, "How much do you want for the plump one?" and that is when the trouble began.
Claudie loves pets so when granny said "Tom go fetch the turkey (wink wink ) the turkey got loud and started running in circles. Claudy the grandaughter led him to a room and dressed him up in clothes. "Meet Gumbo, " she said proudly. He strutted round the kitchen with a cluck put-pur kee kee
Now, he thought he was family. "Tom take the turkey out and give him a good talkin'(wink wink)" What else could he do. He plunked the turkey in the back of his pick up truck and drove away. Claudie stood at the window crying. The last thing she heard was "cluck put-purr kee kee." as the truck drove away, the clucking faded out.
Tom sat on a rock with an unfired rifle in his hands. "Gumbo
was reciting Grace in a mumbo jumbo kind of way but it was
obvious even to a Hillbilly man that this turkey was
brainy and smart. "So your a Canadian heh!" he said to the
strutting anxious turkey. "Oka. Let's go home. Never mind.
We will eat an opossum instead"
Hey, let’s go to the moon
Opportunity will be departing soon
Count is descending down
Orbit will be bound
Hear the roaring engines sound
Amazing adventure maybe found
Playing lunar,’ ring around’
Shooting off into the night’s air
Like a candlelight flare
Nothing can compare
Accepting this trusting dare
Lasting ten days
Going both ways
Checking neighboring planet’s backside
During the fly
Bye
Without a tourist guide
Bringing home souvenir data and results
Empowered using many energy volts
Time to take the darken path
And invade the heavenly wrath
Hiking a darken road
Being very bold
Artemus two mission easily sold
We have been told
Sun agreed wearing blinging gold
Shining bright
Heating our exploring knights
With illuminating light
Assisting them in this successful flight
Punt the Visitor
Wriiten By:Halcyon Daze
A punt is a flat-bottomed
boat with a square-cut bow
, designed for use in small
rivers and shallow water.
Punting is boating in a punt
; the punter propels
Here in South
South Papua (capital Merauke)
we'd fish and farm. The people
of Papua have tradations
they'd celebrate the festive of
the Dieties. The myth of foods
is a story told by the elders of
several villages. It's beleived that
doing a time of peace and prosperity
several members of the neighboring villag
came to the edges of town
and hide in the bush and shrubs
to study the ways of these people.
The adorn grass shirts and wore make-up
and try'd to divide the loyalies of the people.
The most handsome of the men would try to
seduce the woman might they part
from there husbands: so did the Beautiful
wicked women, who did the same among the
husbands of the bunch.
Well the Savants of the villages had devised a plan to
fool and trap these wierded persons
who had made folly of there traditions and beleifs.
they built a flatbottom boat
with a hut and lavishly decorated it
they put food and drink in the hut
and anchored the boat as it appeared to be part of the main land.
In this creek in a cove
they dressed in ritual costumes and beat drums and danced.
They spoke in laungages tha the Symound peopless could understand.

in the hut. They opened the doors of the hut and went in singing invitation to pleasure and tresure.
They jumped out of the back of the boat and hide in the shrubs and bushy areas.
The pale red sun rises on the eastern horizon casting light upon a low crescent
moon and morning star. A Whip-Poor-Will with a sore throat sings his love song to
his mate or maybe to the master artist who paints the constantly changing canopy.
The once smokey gray horizonal clouds have turned a shade of cerise. So much
sound reverberates this still morning. The roosters echo in the hollow, doves coo
upon the hill, mockingbirds sing their varied tunes back and forth through the
oaks while all the neighboring folk lie in bed.

Blessings sometimes come in strange places. The Indigo Buntings are a rare sight their beauty shone forth in which there came delight. Thank you Lord for this beautiful
sight.

In this season of the year, I’m still so sad and lonely,
As I sit on your lap, please listen to all my wishes lovingly;
May you play my dad’s role to cheer my broken and lonely heart
Papa Santa, this is one of my wishes this coming Christmas.
I heard the gruesome news about unmerciful murders,
Children were the primary victims, my heart terribly suffers;
May their kith and kin be comforted and can endure the hurt
Papa Santa, may my wish for them be granted this coming Christmas.
Natural calamities happened in some neighboring countries,
Many people had lost their lives, love ones and lot of their properties;
May we all have the spirit of generosity to share and do our part
Papa Santa, even in a simple way we’ll make them celebrate Christmas.
Many life’s tragedies happened unexpectedly within the year,
Some people cursed their lives, in desolation and in despair;
May they/we feel the enlightenment, hope and strength to make a new start
Papa Santa, this is my loving wish this coming Christmas.
Our society is an indispensable unit to make the whole world happy,
May we all live together with love starting from ourselves and within our family;
May the spirit of true Christmas reigns and draws together those who went apart
Papa Santa, these are my other wishes this coming Christmas.
The year 2012 is about to end and 2013 is fast approaching,
May we close another chapter of our life with gratefulness on God’s blessings;
May we face the year ahead of us in prayer that peace and prosperity may impart
Papa Santa, these are all my loving wishes this coming Christmas.

Walking on the bridge, over the river wild
I see the sky, I see the clouds, I see the birds fly..
The park, where we first met,
The grass is still green today,
The smell of ecstasy
Purging through nature’s velvet bodice:
The rubies peeping in delight
And the dew like diamonds, radiating beauty
Subtly sidereal, even in daylight
The life here had been the same..
The children playing, ladies chatting
And their men down the distance,
Voyeur teenagers..And regret…
The couples in love kissing hard,
The world is a better place for them,
Like it had been once
For me and you..
Time and Age had consorted us.
And while we cry in our own neighboring valleys,
We hear the echoes of pain,
And wanting,
We stare at the highness, separating us,
Then we stare at the blue above,
Thinking of the same nothingness
Pacified are, our naïve souls
Return to city streets.
Every night when I close my eyes,
I think of you,
I think of her who has taken my place,
In between your arms, where I once dwelt,
My parlour of serenity
Had become your harlequin…
Trapped in the kaleidoscope of passion.
Suddenly,
I see you strolling across the promenade…
Looking at me,
With the love we had,
And now, we don’t.
My heart skipped a beat in remorseful hope.
I smile,
And you smile back
While walking past on the same bridge, over the river wild,
In the park, where we first met.
With the beach
In reach
Reading the tourist billboards on the Interstate
With a friendly mate
Coming from the north
For what it’s worth
Following the enchanting moon
That will soon
Hear the sound of breaking surf
On the small city turf
Near the river
Melbourne USA is known for a nice place to have dinner
Only a few miles from the ships
Where Caribbean ports are its trips
Cruising the water
Touching the sands of Florida
Neighboring rockets shoot into the air
Destined for the heavens and the International galactic station we share
Military flights patrol the friendly skies
To the amazement to the shore worshippers giving sunbathing a try
As for the hooks and bait
What a catch one could make
Casting a reel with the hope to bring back an appetizing meal
If there is noise like thunder
There could be a wonder
About Andretti’s racing cars
That has miniature golf where it’s fun to make par
Or one could travel east
For a different amusement tease
Studios like Disney and Universal
Call For a rehearsal
Giving life to shows that everyone knows
Sea World is a place to swim
With dolphins who make the day a win
It is no blunder
Melbourne USA is not down under
Instead it’s on a coast known for its space
That puts a smile on everyone’s face
After the show, which we found a delight,
We stopped at a neighboring place for a bite.
Discussing the play over burgers and fries,
I glanced up to notice a pleasant surprise.
My favorite actor*, of six on the stage,
Sat there in the restaurant, on the same page,
Sharing a meal with an obvious friend –
Unwinding, perhaps, at the matinee’s end.
He isn’t yet famous, so no one looked twice.
(Our unbeknownst staring would have to suffice.)
I wanted to tell him we thought he was great
But a fear of intruding made me hesitate.
Yet we went ahead, interrupted his meal
To share our enjoyment; our words made him feel
Most gratified, judging by his giant grin.
Acknowledgment certainly was a win-win.
An actor’s a regular person, like us,
Despite, when he gets there, the fame and the fuss
And so it felt wonderful just to connect
With some well-chosen words and a dash of respect.
*written about Conor Ryan of "Desperate Measures"
The whole of Eastern Samar
Is commemorating its historic
Battle joined by local patriots
Of Balangiga and neighboring towns
On September 28 1901, the only battle won
By fighting Filipinos against the Americans
That we call now the Balangiga Encounter of1901
This heroic act in that part of Samar
Placed the Balangiganons and the Waray townspeople
In the realm of historic significance
All for independence and democracy
The final return of the Balangiga Bells
Brought in a global laurel to this very remote town
That has now stood more prouder yet humble
For the ultimate sacrifice by their forebears
For love of country and people.
