 The Huntsman by Edward Lowbury

Kagwa hunted the lion,

Through bush and forest went his spear.
One day he found the skull of a man

Kagwa hurried home, Went to the king's chair and spoke,

"Never since I was born of my mother
have I seen or heard of a skull which spoke."

The king called out his guards,

I decided to create this pattern to challenge myself because I agree that wordiness often becomes a tomb of the idea.

The news about the Chinese boy who sold his kidney online was heard from different parts of the world. It is a sad thing but he is not to be blamed. He is merely a victim of adult people who took advantage of his immaturity.

PURITY OF LIFE

Khaliqur Rahman

Man is a queer admixture of the animal, the human and the divine. A simpler way of looking at Man is to see Man as body mind and soul. Freud sees Man as id , ego and super ego.

Then, there are the dichotomies: physical – ethereal, impure – pure and mortal – immortal .

God is one of the two opposites: ethereal, pure and immortal .

Ghalib in one of his couplets has said that the Pure cannot manifest itself without what is Impure. The glass needs a layer of mercury to refl

A POEM ON SPELLING & PRONUNCIATION

Author not known

I take it you already know

Of TOUGH and BOUGH and COUGH and DOUGH.

Others may stumble but not you

On HICCOUGH, THOROUGH, LOUGH and THROUGH

Well done! And now you wish, perhaps,

To learn of less familiar traps.

Beware of HEARD, a dreadful word

That looks like BEARD and sounds like BIRD

And DEAD – it’s said like BED, not BEAD.

For goodness sake, don’t call it DEED!

Watch out for MEAT and GREAT and THREAT:

They rhyme with SUITE and STRAIGHT and DEBT.

Type...type...eat...type...bathroom...type...eat...type...eat...type...bathroom...type...sleep...type....!!!

Sometimes, I feel like my fingers are about to fall off (just like now)...yet I still manage to keep on tapping my keyboard.  

But this is how I usually spend my day...and night....except when I'm playing with my kid or out running errands.

Thinking about it...I was reminded of the first time I was learning how to use the typewriter.  

I had a STENO/TYPING class back in high school.

Student A : "Sir, please give us dispensation for this, Since we woke up late this morning, study hard last night sir."
Student B : "We use public vehicle to come here, and

I've noticed some members just keep writing blogs/blog posts, but don't really like to read or leave a comment on blogs from other members. Don't get me wrong - I mean we do encourage you to write blogs, but we also encourage you to leave a comment on blogs by other members.

I can’t see what the dentist is doing in my mouth. Only I can see is scary-looking instruments and chairs. And there is also the horrible high-pitched noise it makes. Then the inevitable pain may be caused by having a needle stuck in my mouth. All above things always well up on my mind before I decide to go to the dentist each time. Do you have similar feeling as mine?

The night before yesterday, one of my molars, wisdom tooth, is like an eruptive volcano disordered me the whole night. The seve

Wow! Great! Congratulations to Li Na, a Chinese woman tennis player!

These last weeks I feel I have been thinking over my attitudes towards work, home and relationships.

And never stop to think if they are worth or at least necessary. 

Eventually I thought I should give up one
