The knight was gloryous. We the

Honoring the English Wombles

Don’t wake him up yet! Shansi said with a snicker.
Orinoco needs his sleep, for his soft-hearted ticker!
So Great Uncle Bulgaria gave Orinoco fifteen minutes more.

Tempted to use “illicit” when you mean “elicit?” 
Misusing “averse”

It'Ll Bring ::The English Sonnet Or the Shakespearean Sonnet Or the Elizabethan Sonnet

  
Simple question was asked but they fumble;
What are you going to do with your life?
Most of them babble, to speak they struggle;
Appears they don't know how to handle strife.

Don't have idea for their future day
lost their direction that shows confusion.
Answer to question is simple if they
apply their minds, there can't be illusion.

The teacher asked, "The English Channel is where?"

Hill walkers come from near and far

The English Hedgerow

By lane and path the English hedgerow,
In which so many wild things grow,
For centuries has crossed the land –
A world of nature, close at hand.

In Spring the blackthorn's cloaked in snow,
