Memories of making these with my dad.
Each time they were delicious, cooking with my dad priceless.
Add garlic, onion, seasoning, ketchup, crushed saltine crackers and egg.
Toss with raw hamburger, add salt and pepper, shape into round balls.
Bake in the oven for fifty minutes, your house will smell Italian.
Always let them cool, you will be tempted to eat one right away!
Layer them in pasta sauce, let them simmer, an hour or two.
Lots of fresh pasta pairs well, eat them plain, a full plate or a few.
Spread a huge serving, add sauce and pasta, no diets allowed!

well said
September came in like a sombre whirlwind,
Eclipsing the deadening blossoms of summer.
Pallid moonlight coats glistening frost,
That coats the last strands of grass holding on.
Embers of a pagan pyre swirl through the air,
Mass ritualistic hymns ring across realms,
Breaching otherworldly barriers,
Evoking sacred cosmic rites,
Resurrecting scattered souls.
Falling bodies collapse to the slaughter,
As one soul is given in exchange for another.
Loss begets loss;
Lightning suddenly surges through the skies,
Signalling completion of an unholy ritual.

After ee cummings
She is my old school someone
From a long long time,
Yet the feeling has gone
When she's already mine.
I won her heart and she did gains
Condensed hatred and unbearable pains,
Our woven story, Oh my! I have stained
Causing her life to be lost and waned.
Still, her wit and innocence
Gentle smiles and sweet scents,
Keep lingering in my memories
When I'm lonely, I really do miss.
And he found her, I thanked God
The man he prayed for so hard,
'Tis for you, my long lost love
My silent whisper from up above.

R-ide high above the clouds,
A-s the sky is blue;
N-ot for a single moment,
D-efeat won't come to
Y-ou.
P-ray for sweet victory,
A-sk God to beat the foe;
A-llow the win to bring
L-oss to fret or woe.
I-n eighteenth of September,
S-uccess shall never die;
B-ecause of your firm faith,
O-pen your wings to ride high.
