Sort by
under the rain

we shall meet in winter
at the rail station....in baghdad
to strange sparrows
wanted shivering
under the train
migrated for the farthest
at the corner of the gulf
nestless we've lost our home
we've lost the addresses
of our friends
there remained alone
known to no one but the rain

تحت المطر
سنلتقي في الشتاء
عند المحطة في بغداد
نبتل تحت المطر
فنرتعش....
عصفوران غريبان
هاجرا من اقاصى الجنوب
عند زاوية الخليج
مالنا عش
وليس لنا مستقر
اضعنا كل عناوين الاصدقاء
وبقينا وحيدين
ما يعرفنا غير المطر

memory

Lately on Saturday afternoon, T and I went to shopping. Going through Kham Thien street I suddenly had a strange feeling…. Still that house, ya, but I don’t know why that time I felt a feeling of closeness , of intimacy, but also feeling of distance by something, by someone… I miss you and people in that house….I miss this place….There is not now a figure of an old man sitting on a small chair outside the door , enjoying the view of everybody in the street….I myself didn’t forget that .

What is your favorite dish?

My fellow Women EC members!
I ask you to tell about your favorite dish,or the one you cook often.



The idea of putting this question up came to me during I was preparing the meal for today.
I was wondering,what other women might prepare for dinner or lunch for their families at the other parts of the globe.


You can add here your favorite dish,and the recipe of it,with the method how it is prepared.It can be an easy one,or the food your family prefers.
It'll be interesting to share meals of other cultu

What is English learning like in China? Why are there so many learners of English there? You will find all the answers in the video 'Insights from China' by Daniel Emmerson. Emmerson has produced several such documentaries and inspired learners here on MyEC to learn English. I have seen some of the documentaries and really enjoyed so much watching them.

China promised an open policy in 1978 and now it has one of the most successful economies in the world. Shanghai is the business capital of China

Hi, my fellow international friends in My English Club! I honestly understand that you’ve been working so hard to improve your English better and more fluent as much as possible. So I have an English Children’s Game in here for all of you, as I used to have one with my children whenever we were driving for a long journey;

Rules:

The person who is going to say, “Eye spy with my little eye something beginning with?”, must look at one object (one word or two words) from where you are now (whether you

There are many reason why you decide to watch a movie.For the sake of the story,actors,plot,etc.?
The choice of mine was simply the book writer's person,the best seller:Nicholas Sparks.He made me wonder about the film,because I had read the book beforehand I have seen the film.

As I knew the original story of the film,I had higher expectations about it,which was just partly realized.

The genre of this film is a romantic drama.
It is directed by Lasse Hallström,starring

The miracle

People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle.
But I think the real miracle is not to walk either on water or in thin air, but to walk on earth.

Everyday we are engaged in a miracle which we don’t even recognize;
a blue sky, white clouds, green leaves, the black curious eyes of a child; our own two eyes.

Agression

There are different reasons why a person may act aggressively towardsother human beings. The person may act this way because of his cultureor the way he was brought up in society. The person does not, however,act this way based on instinct alone. Aggression is a molded, learnedbehavior. A human being must have both environmental and instinctualfactors in order to display aggression. Some of a person's naturalinstincts are to desire food, reject certain things, escape fromdanger, fight when chall

filmAs a writer, you must always be on the lookout for inspiration. This is why I always carry a notebook. Two things inspired me to create the topic "Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down" for Writing Challenge #17:
1. An excellent blog post on Sherlock Holmes by MyEC Member Franklin Fernandes.
2. Watching Daniel Emmerson's latest film from The Learning English Video Project "Insights from China"

This month we are going to write movie reviews together. Will your movie get a thumbs up or a thumbs down?

How much time you got in me ?
How much ?
You was in me
And i was looking for you
on top of the mountain
In depth of the sea
In middle of the jungle

But you was in me

Woe! My Sparrow !
Damn on me ,
Coz i ain't seen you before
Coz i ain't seen you

But i found you , Now
You must not remain in me
I wanna fly you my sparrow
I wanna fly you my soul

Now you are free
You are free
Free

International Women's Day!

Happy Women's Day!How do you spend your day, women? Still working or enjoying your holiday?I'm still working and I will tell you something funny why we don't have a half a day free.This morning, one of our manager who is a woman came into Mr Nakao's office, who is Japanese--the boss. She asked " Today is International Women's Day. There are so many companies giving their woman-staffs a half a day free. Could you give us a half a day free, too?"Can you guess what my boss replied?

The day I saw you

You were alone and quiet.

No one noticed you, nor recognized you.

You asked, no one answered.

You talked but, no one listened.

 

 


My face concealed the sadness in my heart.

In my heart, I kept my true feeling.

The tears I hide behind the smiles.

Is my true feeling that struggles to survive.

 

 


My whispers were shouts that resonated with clear meaning.

But, was ignored while you rejoiced.

That day came when I knocked on each one's door but, had only seen much pain and rejection.

The day came... that day came.
