Charlotte Henshaw

“Perfect practice makes perfect”,  
Is Charlotte’s motto in life, principa:
She swims and plays piano, oboe, 
Loves musicals: Les Mis, Wicked.

Born without fully developed legs, 
Both were amputated above knee, 
When she was eighteen months, 
But she was walking at two years. 

From Sterling Uni she’s degreed, 
In psychology and sports, a BA, 
She’s been to three Paralympics:
Beijing 2008, London 2012, Rio.

In Beijing she settled for fourth, 
But in 2009 at the Euro Champs,
She struck the breaststroke gold, 
To win in a time of 1:40.50 mins. 

Then in 2009, the British Champs, 
She hit the gold again in the 100m,
Breaststroke, her favourite event, 
And at the Worlds in 2010, a PB. 

Which took her onto London 2012, 
Where she secured the fine silver, 
Coming second only to Ukraine, 
Loosing out only by 0.03 seconds.

Then Canada and Montreal 2013,
And Charlotte won a bronze medal, 
In class SB6 for the breaststroke, 
To continue her large medal haul. 

Onto Glasgow and the Worlds,
2015, and Charlotte won a silver, 
Then Funchal, it's Portuguese, 
And Charlotte took precious gold. 

At Rio grand she landed a bronze, 
In the 100m of the breaststroke,
With a time of 1:37.79 minutes,
Just behind Tiff Kane in 1:36.95.


Premium Member Eight decades on'

Eight decades past world war two was at its last gasp.'
Parades were to folow.' Nazi Germany was beaten hollow
Like a drum..'Some scenes echo.' And make me dumb my
Mouth, silent my eyes observe the violence shaky screened
Whirrs my mind.' On the real actions of nazis and horrifc
Finds.' Humans dehumanised stacked like sides of pork
Or cords of wood.' The simple pathos alone talks..Today i hear of nazis again.' I see one was feted in Canada and
That two leigions there gained.' New lives and citezenship
Can this really be.' Then zelensky sends troops to Isreal i
See.? Meanwhile (yuroslaf hunka) the ss soldier he elevated.' anongside trudeau.' Both looking elated' clapping
Hands this in parlieament setting' well after their earlier
Meet and greet and narration.' He was a freedom fighter
Against the ussr.? I beg your pardon.' And I state I am no
Czar.' Of lineage or of lies.' And the truth?? Well thats been
Battered.' Just as eight decades later.' With Ukraine really in
Tatters.' And claims of nazi elements.? Whats with historys wheel? No matter the narrative.' Whats real is 'still real' I
Can't trust drainsteeam-media..To tell the time of day.' I conject on all their outrageous info but hey ' even should i
Be told California has gone rouge? Letting in American
Warships to attack America.?? Do you think that story could be told.? Yet when ships sit in Sevastopol i'm told
Crimea might get invaded 'and they'll soon be speaking
Russian.?? But I thought they did? Whats this all in aid of, kids?
Well it can't be the truth? I re-check on history, and the Crimean war fought in 1853.'

for a little slander

for a little slander
The new president of America has told Europe to look after its own defense which means NATO without the USA’s help becomes a boy’s club for retired politicians pretending, they are a fighting force eager to defend Ukraine which can’t be done without dragging without risking a serious world war, they hands are tied since Ukraine s not in NATO, an easy excuse because we know it is not true, but it has not stopped leaders in Europe to hammer their support of Ukraine to get at the Russians although knowing the war could have been avoided but for idiotic policies 
Oh, how Europe’s leaders hugged Ukraine to their hearts delivering money and weapons to what was and is a corrupt regime
How quickly they changed tunes when the USA told the truth, mates you are on your own we will not defend you anymore you are masters in your land and responsible for your own security How sweet it was to my ears spoken by a man we vilify because he wears a tie too long for the snobs in Brussels who has a leader that wears her hair as fashioned like a helmet
After a shocked silence voices were heard but the man was right, we are responsible for our security -silly sods- Suddenly -Ukraine was no longer Europe and must find peace with Russia Spring thawed in February, on Valentine's Day on a day when Macron’s and Obama’s wives exchanged glances 
For us, we were humbled and ignored it was a great day too finally the war is not imminent but we must not forget the clever people in Tel Aviv will find a way to upset the Apple chart

He Brought It With Him

Written By:  D. Collins 2/26/19


He brought Putin with him as a partner in crime.
Working in cahoots to rob America blind.
Creating diversions while slipping in bots.
And, distance between the "Haves and Have-Nots."


Controversy is their single game plan.
Trump is the mouth, where Putin is "The Man."
All of his staff had ties to Russia and Ukraine.
It doesn't take much to run that across the brain.


"We Got Played" there is no question about that.
"Praise to the Party" has gotten us where we're at.
When it comes out in the wash, you'll catch my drift.
And, come to the conclusion that we got stiffed.


He brought it with him before he took the Oath.
And, it affects me, along with all of my folks.
We've become so dirty, it will be hard to clean.
But, we are masters of building self-esteem.

Aurope is left behind

Europe is stuck in the past
Europe’s leaders have to see that the world has changed but continue to pursue a globalist agenda through the EU, where all of Europe’s nations from the cold North to temperate Spain should speak with the same voice, in happy unity
The Great Victor Orban disagreed and was hated, he believed that individual countries should decide their own future to create, if you like, a multi-power structure; globalists angrily    objected to this state of affairs
Up from dark minds the Russia hatred arose among the leaders, suggesting they could arm Ukraine to go on fighting a lost war but the people do not fear Russia, in Norway it is a place for shopping, buying Russian vodka and so on
In Norway, whoever party is in charge lays down laws restricting what their inhabitants can do or not do and think, knowing what is best for the people believe, and they are not ashamed to bring religion into this. This is a micro-cosmos of
Europe’s strangulation of people’s free will and they have the nerve call this social democracy which to a set of rules that is an enemy of free will, free expression where people are banned for having an opinion contrary to officialdom 
You might think restriction of booze and how much vodka you can take home after a trip to Russia, by-laws are made to make you safe and before you know, you can be arrested for carrying a cigarette lighter in your pocket

Premium Member An Absolute Disgrace

The invasion began on the twenty fourth of February
When in from Belarus came, the filth of humanity
The world soon got to know of their cruel depravities 
Each town they invaded, they were guilty of atrocities. 

Putin had hoped to announce victory, on the ninth of may
But strong Ukrainian resistance is standing in his way
Helped by the civilised world supplying arms to fight
Now Russia can no longer claim to have military might.

The west imposed heavy sanctions but the war is still raging
Especially in the Donbas region where defenders are engaging
Putin doesn't care for loss of life,  to him it doesn't bother 
While sending in his conscripts to be used as cannon fodder. 

But don't be fooled for one minute and offer them any sympathy 
For many of his soldiers have committed, vile acts of atrocity 
Murder, rape and lootings have been committed commonplace 
Reports of young children being bashed, with rifle butt's in the face. 

Buildings shelled and under the rubble many people still alive
The Russian scum wouldn't allow anyone to help them survive 
Mobile crematoria used to destroy evidence, of their killing spree 
But evidence is being documented for the whole world to see. 

Rebuilding all the infrastructure, will take a very long time
And the Russian aggressors must be made to pay, every last dime
Good will always triumph over evil and one day Ukraine will free
And hopefully in time be able to move on, from that awful tragedy. 

To all the would be aggressors out there and especially Putin
The civilised world will support freedom and you'll never win
There will be no forgiveness or a route to save face
Humanity owes you nothing, you're an absolute disgrace.

Premium Member What Did I Do - In Putins Own Words

What did I do,
Quite the disaster, but if only they knew
The depth of the hole I find myself in,
Thank goodness ambition is no mortal sin.

I seriously thought this thing would be fast,
A simple invasion, a side show, a blast,
Over by dinner then pop the Champagne,
Ukraine by name only, Russia’s domain.

Never the thought came into my head
That a little B actor would play me instead,
Tenacious and cunning he's proven to be
But if chess is the game, good luck playing me.

The West struts its stuff, more noise than effect,
A mish mash of junk all easily wrecked,
Perhaps they forget the Russian resolve,
Stay tuned for a while and watch it evolve.

Ukraine is no match for what we can do,
Time our best friend and that's always been true,
We're patient and hardy, impervious to pain,
We'll suffer and bleed for what's ours to gain.

Don't read me wrong I want this to end,
I'm just very careful which message I send,
At the end of the day I'll make a tough deal,
And a big swath of land I'll invariably steal.

Ukraine won't be happy, the West will cry foul,
But don't be impressed, it's merely a howl,
A little play acting for show and effect,
As for this to continue they clearly all dread.

Ignore the odd glitches it's the outcome that counts,
This hasn't been pretty, a truth with few doubts,
But often what shines is merely fool’s gold,
Land is the key and Ukraine’s I will hold.

Premium Member New Experience

Years ago, in a time that seems like a past life
I never thought I would ever see people from Ukraine
Up close, nor serve them even cookies and donuts from a shop
Even before seeing a children hop like happy bunnies  
But now I have, and it was a good experience- maybe better than good 

Even though the reason for this new experience may have been an awful 
World occurrence that should have never taken place especially with haste
I am thankful to the instigator of that world disaster which was not a duster
For the experience even though there were not enough donuts- should I feel guilty?

Although this good experience sometimes seems like an illusion
And if it was real, there the question of how they found Westport 
But regardless of the answer, which might never really be known
There will always be a new experience of some kind- be open to having one
And freely feel at  peace!

Premium Member Put Down Them Guns This Lands Not Yours- My Spokenword

"Put down them guns this land's not yours 
Put down them guns this land's not yahs
This Satan world momentarily yours
Elohim created this theses lands be really free 
Created creator created this universe for you N me
This earth this world for humanity man to tend to and toil
Put down them guns, rocket missile launchers and run
?
this world is vast creation created by God on loan to man 
Humanity supposed to be caretakers of it so sad, and 
Why is it that one or few bad person(s) feel the rule must have and 
So dictate what's their solely this is Satan's world for now (so he thinks) 
Sowing discord and havoc, stealing, wounding, killing God's children 
God's not pleased let us surrender our evil hearts, man what's ya doin
Give God His due process pray for those in troubled lands 
Pray for Peace joy and love 
In Him we're just God's children temporarily caretakers toiling the land 
Let us share it and teach while we can 
Peace-peace what our fellow man needs
All races all needs Jesus
For the world is created and truly owned by God 
And man is just a farmer a caretaker, truth be told righteously so Hallelujah
Put down them guns this land's not yah!
Put down them guns the land is not yours"

Premium Member Putins Hollow Victory Parade

Russia celebrates victory over Nazism on the ninth of may
But there is just a few things that I would like to say
Victory over Ukraine they certainly won't be celebrating
And weapons to beat them we'll keep on supplying.

How can they be so proud of their murdering scum army
Who've been engaging in vile acts of sheer depravity
Their ship the Makarov has been hit, by a missile in the Black Sea
That had been landing troops and firing missiles, indiscriminately.

I read their T90 super duper-tank has taken a direct hit
Russia might be able to salvage some bits and do a refit
The Ukrainian army are turning, Russian equipment into scrap
It's hardly state of the art, more like a pile of cheap crap.

Putin employed Chechen thugs to make sure soldiers didn't desert
Then the Russian army turned on them and left them in the dirt
But many soldiers are deserting they have now seen the light
Making a laughing stock of Russia's, supposed military might.

So as Russians cheers on their victory parade in Red Square
Hundreds of people are dying but they don't really care
They're been fed daily via TV with propaganda and lies
The fact that many support Putin should come as no surprise.

I look forward to the day when Ukraine, will eventually be free
Both I and the civilised world will be cheering their victory
Russia will no longer be a threat having been weakened militarily
And will never again be able to impose their rule, on another forcibly.
