A BOAT, BENEATH A SUNNY SKY - Lewis Carroll - 1832-1898




A  BOAT,  BENEATH  A  SUNNY  SKY


Lewis Carroll - 1832-1898




A boat, beneath a sunny sky
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July - 


Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear - 


Long has paled that sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.


Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.


Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.


In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:


Ever drifting down the stream
Lingering in the golden gleam
Life, what is it but a dream ?

LOVING YOU - by Rachel

 




LOVING  YOU

by Rachel


I love to listen to you talk,
as you open up to me,
expressing what your feeling,
and everything you see.

I love they way you listen,
and how i know you understand,
everything I'm mumbling,
and help me through it with your hand.

I love how you give me advice,
and tell what or not to do,
You always make me fell better,
and help me pursue.

I love the way you help me,
Whether is night or day,
your always there,
every step of the way.

I love the way you make me smile,
and make me glow with delight,
You take away my fears,
and make everything alright.

I love everything about you,
And you'll always be my Friend,
I guess what i cant accept,
Is that i will love you forever and always till the end.








 

 

 

EVERY DAY - by Ben T.


 


EVERY  DAY

by  Ben  T.



In every day that passes by
I feel the need to wonder why,
Why it is I met you this year,
And if your really meant to be here.


The all of a sudden I open my eyes,
And never have to ask that question why.
You make me smile when I’m feeling down
I am yet to see you wearing a frown.


If my life was meant to easy it would come with a book
But it seems so easy with your friendly look
It is a look like that, that makes my day
And lets my troubles fade away.


And if one of us should happen to die,
The other would be left to wonder why.
We’ll be apart until we meet again,
But the friendship will always be the same.


The thing that I am trying to say,
Is that I’m grateful of our friendship everyday.
And as you sit in silence wondering why,
I’ll be there for you til your tears run dry.


If you’re ever upset at what someone has done,
And you need someone to listen I’ll be the one.
Your problems are lighter when carried by two,
And I want you to know I am here for you.


In every day that passes by
I feel the need to wonder why,
Why it is I met you this year,
And why it took so long for you to get here...



 
  


 

 

 

YOUR SILLY PRIDE - by Ehsan Sehgal





YOUR  SILLY  PRIDE 

by Ehsan Sehgal



I am beyond your reach
You do not understand
You violated
The moral values
The etiquette of life
And you also raped
The truth of love
You tried to buy
Devotion and affection
Instead of the reality
That could lead you
Toward pure love
But you lost that
You murdered that
With your silly pride
Unwise attitude
The world is not empty
There are many more
Humble, decent people
Who can accept me
With my all flaws
Why should I wait
For you
I even do not know you
The fact is that
You do not need me
I do not need you.






 

 

 

may my heart always be open to little... (19) - by E. E. Cummings







may my heart always be open to little... (19)

by E. E. Cummings



may my heart always be open to little
birds who are the secrets of living
whatever they sing is better than to know
and if men should not hear them men are old



may my mind stroll about hungry
and fearless and thirsty and supple
and even if it's sunday may i be wrong
for whenever men are right they are not young



and may myself do nothing usefully
and love yourself so more than truly
there's never been quite such a fool who could fail
pulling all the sky over him with one smile

LITTLE TRICKS FOR COOKING FISH







Do you like fish, but you can't always cook it the way you would like? There are little tricks for cooking delicious fish that every housewife should know. These little tricks will help you establish yourself as a great cook and make amazing fish dishes!


1. Before processing fish, place it in a bowl with water, if the fish sinks it is fresh, if not, then refuse to cook this product.

2. To eliminate the strong smell of fish frying, place one potato, peeled and cut into slices, in vegetable oil.

3. Fish broth is salted at the very beginning of cooking.

4. Before cutting, salted fish is poured with cold water so that it swells slightly - then it will be easier to clean.

5. To prevent the fish from falling apart when frying, it must be cut and salted 15 minutes before cooking.

6. Strongly salted fish is soaked in cold water for 4-6 hours. The water is changed every 1-2 hours. It is not recommended to store soaked fish.

7. The insides of the fish (not large) can be removed without cutting the abdomen. To do this, you need to make a deep cut near the gills, cut the spine and remove the head along with the entrails.

8. When frying the fish, add some salt to the hot oil to make the fish crisp.

9. In order for the fish to be well cleaned of the scales, it must be dipped in boiling water, and then put into warm water with the addition of vinegar.

10. The skin of the fish is easily removed if you first spray it with vinegar.

11. If the herring is too salty, soak it in tea or milk.

12. In order for the fish to brown well, it is necessary to dry it with a towel before frying.

13. Scales are easier to remove if you start cleaning the fish from the dorsal fin to the abdomen and tail.

14. Saltwater fish will be more tender if sprinkled with sugar 30-40 minutes before frying.

15. Small and cut fish are placed in boiling water so that it is not overcooked.

16. Frozen fish during cooking can only be placed in cold water.

17. It is not recommended to boil lampreys, bream, eel and carp - the broth turns out to be bitter.

18. During cooking, large fish are placed in cold water, and when it boils, water is added as needed.

19. All fish dishes should not be cooked at a high boil. At the beginning of the boil, reduce the heating and continue cooking at a low boil, which is evident from the barely noticeable, but not stopping movement of the liquid.

20. When cleaning slippery fish, you can dip your fingers in salt - this will facilitate work.

21. The easiest way to clean the fish is to use a regular grater under a gentle stream of cold water. Brush the fish from tail to head.

22. To determine the readiness of boiled fish, you need to stick a match into it. If the match easily enters the pulp, the dish is ready.

23. You need to fry fish in a small amount of fat, it is best to use a mixture of vegetable and butter; do not put the pieces tightly to each other, otherwise you will not get an appetizing crust on all sides.

24. If boiled or fried fish is left from lunch or dinner, you can store it in the cold for no longer than 1-2 days and be sure to boil the boiled fish in fish broth or water before serving it, and fry the fried additionally - each piece on both sides ...

25. Granular caviar will not dry out for a long time if you pour a thin layer of vegetable oil on top of a jar of caviar and close it tightly.

26. The key to a fragrant fish broth is the presence of several types of fish in it.

Grilled whole fish on banana leaf with cilantro and thai basil

FOREVER AND EVER.... - by Jr. D

 






FOREVER  AND  EVER....

by Jr.  D


A young relationship can never last long,
To get through some days, you must be strong.
Should have listened to the words my friends gave me,
Too late,puppy love got a grip of my heart and raped me.
I still like her and wish it would get through,
I screwed, so what, whatcha gonna do.
You know what they say, opposites attract,
Too bad with same minds no time to react.
Too much in common with too little time,
Sitting here wishing you'd still be mine.
If I'd have waited just a little bit longer,
The relationship would grow, friendship be stronger.
Never realize the precious time that love takes,
Cause the puppy inside me ain't ready for heart break.
Time heals all, through the best and the worst,
Even when laid out, toes up, in a hearse.
Sometimes i feel stupid even when not my fault,
Cause still intact, though beat up is my heart.
When you melt pure gold, it's as gold as ever,
When you break a heart, it's broken forever.
Time comes in relationships to never say never,
Cause in my heart you'll live forever and ever. 






 

 

 

BECAUSE OF YOU - by Elina





BECAUSE  OF  YOU

by Elina



How would you change a life ?
You open up the door
You open up your heart
And let out so much more


One day is all it took
To know that you’re the one
Who’d turn my life around
Now a friendship has begun


A few months have now passed
We have learned to trust each other
To tell each other everything
And confide in one another


You’re such an amazing person
And I know this much is true
I changed for the better
And it’s all because of you






 

 

 

THE SWEETEST HEART - by Pepe N.

 



 


THE  SWEETEST  HEART


by Pepe N.


A little girl's voice
Calls out from your heart
So pure and so tender
Yet broken apart
Give all that you have
Without hesitation or fear
To those you find trust
Yet betrayed by those dear
It is not a mistake
At all on your part
To trust those that mistreat you
Because of your heart
You hide behind a mask
An identity not your own
In hopes of hiding pain
That others have never known
Although it seems like the solution
Hurt a little easier to deal
Isn't it in reality
The fear of facing what is real ?
The beautiful person that you are
Inside and out
This is no lie
These words never doubt
I tell you the truth
Time and time again
Because I care about you
My special friend
And if one day should come
That sends our roads apart
I will always remember you
The girl with the "sweetest heart"






 

 

THE PASSENGER OF HEART - by Aria

 





THE  PASSENGER  OF  HEART

by Aria


Give chance to absolute healing
not to the wound
by forgiving your friends

Do not place them in unbreakable shell
of your judgment for their past
When the river gets to the ocean is free!

Give space to healing by acceptance
Forgiveness is turning point
in the mirror of your heart
To change the unsightly face to exquisiteness
the tantrum to tolerance
To change the uneven duos to fair images
To change your rival to a better man

Break the shield of your verdicts
Let your wound embrace the salve of lenience
Let inhale the air that is not tainted
by the breath of our decrees
no matter how harsh the conditions are

Forgiveness like fresh air
imbues the lungs of the healings 







 

 

 

MISSING - by Skittle

 

Дождик осенний,поплач обо мне...



MISSING 

by Skittle


I'm confused, I think, I really don't know.
Searching all these days for where I should go.
Am I mad, am I sad? Should I even feel glad?
Whatever happened to the happiness I had?
I feel like something is missing in my life.
How can I go on, with all of this strife?
I really don't know, just how I should feel.
Am I dreaming or awake? I don't know what's real.
I try to tell people, but the words won't come out.
I feel so frustrated, I just wanna shout.
I feel like an angel who has no more wings.
I feel like a man who has forgotten his dreams.
But then I see your face and I finally know.
That what I'm missing in life is the smile you show.
Never realized it up until now, but you are my life.
One of these days I'll make you my wife.
But for now I can be happy with you as my friend.
And I hope that our friendship will never end...
