Premium Member Current Affairs Explained

We spend so much time on current affairs
Even though we have no influence there
   So, why do we persist
   Here's why, if you insist
We've found an excuse to yell, curse and swear

Ukraine belonged to Russia
So they acted doing their job
To make things easier 
Ukraine was Russia
Russia was Ukraine
Outsiders don't get it
One Mother Russia
Always forever

Headlines swirl like restless winds, each gust insisting it is truth;
voices clash in crowded squares, and certainty grows thin.

Yet quiet hearts still listen — seeking light within the noise.

Neo Soviet sleeper cells lying in wait
Or just crossing the border at varied places
Troop checkpoints or a forest path
Or by HALO jump from a plane
Doing their job changing the landscape
Not chopping down trees
But assassinating those on the list
Culling the ones who were an issue
That Putin wanted dead out of the way


Dancing Day

Dancing Day
There is a party in the park will you go the 
Theme is military so bring a toy weapon
We will play at war it will be so much fun
You can be Russia I will be NATO
The others Red China North Korea etc
So we all get a really good battle war
Just a game at our little party in the park
Do come along it will be a day to remember

Carolyn Devonshire and Entire

Much time two women had spent;
Problems possessed by immigrant;
Good looking lasses,
In aviator glasses,
And they never had to live in a tent.

Jim Horn

About Homeland Security loser and
Fox News Female Reporter who wore
aviator glasses.

House of Words

A house of words
Alphabets, vowels and consonants 
Syllables and phases
Numbers and symbols
To make us laugh, sad, wonder, puzzled, entertain
Inspire us, motivation, and uplift 
Keep us busy
Give us knowledge, insight, wisdom
Facts and dates, measurements and updates
History and current affairs
The house that gives life meaning and purpose

Broadcaster of the Good News

B-roadcaster of the good news
E-vades the fake report; 
L-atest events bring knowledge, 
L-isteners like her
E-ffort.

S-mart broadcaster of the good news
U-nder each opportunity
R-elays the current affairs
A-nd recent things to community.
R-adio and TV December first are both effective to use; 
A-iming to serve the public through broadcaster of the good news.

Premium Member Tribute to Rico Leffanta - Not for contest

I often feel that you are still here,
bringing laughter and so much cheer. 
Your Limericks like a news reel.
You are still here, I often feel.

A dose of fun every day.
Some had current affairs at play.
All had humor, many a pun.
Every day a dose of fun.

Rico so many miss your rhyme.
I was the subject of your last time
That's why I offer a tribute like this.
Your rhyme Rico, so many miss.

History and Current Affairs

When Hitler wanted to take over Austria
He didn’t have to employ the mafia,
Instead he slyly gave the people a big thrill,
By mandating a national health care bill.
He then became everyone’s hero,
Even if he was a big zero.

Great orators have consistently led nations,
Their passion and charisma met with ovations,
It didn’t make much difference what they said,
Once Truth and common sense were dead.

Island Edited

Island

They waited for me. I never showed. I was in Manny. They agreed to waiver my bleed. Relaxed rules and all. I'd be in! But it never happened. Not there in my English unit with my mates, ready to kill Russians. I went to protect my other family and other home from the Red Chinese when they invaded our island. I'd get my island war after all. The war gun was ready for action.

Place To Be

Place To Be
The best place to be right now
Is not in Europe over Russia's issues
A pissed off nation with 7,500 nukes
Of different types and classes
As set ready to use on Putin's order
Ukraine started it after NATO grew
Right up to Russia's borders
Now they want to turn back the clock
1997 when Russia wasn't threatened
This isn't possible so they all 
Sleepwalk to Armageddon
This year or the next
It's coming soon...

Be All Things To All Men

To devout Roman Catholics I posture as Pope,
but that's in no way the end of my scope.
Zealous aspirations I daily inspire
by promising to deliver the coming Messiah.
Bible-belt believers in any doubt or suspense
are soon reassured by Vice President  Pence.
Proud boys, not famed for their devotion to God,
stand by in the street awaiting a nod.
Just in case your sympathies lie with the Devil,
to you I  can promise a helluva revel.

Acute Consumption

Weary, sullen, mournful face,
A tale of internal disturbance tells,
Perhaps of some chronic illness,
Or of current affairs!

Dark rings around the eyes,
Malar prominence and sunken cheeks,
Malar flush of high fever,
Makes the diagnosis more clear

Clinicians! beware! pay attention!
It may be Acute consumption!

( Note:-- The first episode of 
Acute consumption i.e.
 Acute miliary tuberculosis may
 masquerade Acute bronchitis. )

One of the Best Anchors

W-orld news and current affairs 
E-volve virtually in EBC; 
N-et 25 neutral station 
G-ives information to see. 

D-ay twentieth of March 
E-arly breaks after the night; 
L-et the Monday morning 
A-im to bring warmth and light. 

F-rom local to international events, 
U-nder the wide blue sky; 
E-agle Broadcasting Corporation 
N-ever will tell a lie. 
T-ruth is all that matters, even if without big sponsors; 
E-xceptional airing of programs makes her one of the best anchors.

Anchorman of Television

A-n anchorman of television

O-ne anchorman of television 
N-ever spreads biased news; 
Y-es, he speaks with sincerity, honest words he does use. 

T-he anchorman of television 
A-ims to fulfill his noble duty 
B-ecause of the public service 
E-arly sixteenth of January. 
R-adio program of the broadcaster 
N-eeds no trick nor deception; 
A-s truth is the topic of the anchorman of television.
