fallas (Evelyn F Smith):
"Jabberwocky" by Lewis Carroll
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that snatch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"
He took his vorpal sword in hand;
Long time the manxone foe he sought--
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh, Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.
'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the momeraths outgrabe.
"La Belle Dame sans Merci" by John Keats
"O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms,
Alone and palely loitering?
The sedge has withered from the lake,
And no birds sing.
"O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms!
So haggard and woebegone?
The squirrel's granary is full,
And the harvest's done.
I see a lily on thy brow
With anguish moist and fever-dew,
And on thy cheeks a fading rose
Fast withereth, too."
"I met a lady in the meads,
Full beautiful--a faery's child;
Her hair was long, her foot was light,
And her eyes were wild.
"I made a garland for her head,
And bracelets, too, and fragrant zone
She looked at me as she did love,
And made sweet moan.
"I set her on my pacing steed
And nothing else saw all day long
For sidelong would she bend, and sing
A faery's song.
"She found me roots of relish sweet,
And honey wild and manna-dew,
And sure in language strange she said,
'I love thee true.'
"She took me to her elfin grot,
And there she wept and sighed full sore;
And there I shut her wild, wild eyes
With kisses four.
"And there she lull`ed me asleep,
And there I dreamed--Ah! woe betide!
The latest dream I ever dreamed
On the cold hill's side.
"I saw pale kings and princes, too,
Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;
They cried--'La belle dame sans merci
Hath thee in thrall!'
"I saw their starved lips in the gloam
With horrid warning gap`ed wide,
And I awoke and found me here
On the cold hill's side.
"And this is why I sojourn here,
Alone and palely loitering,
Though the sedge is withered from the lake,
And no birds sing."
***:) neat hairdo, eh?
I am a Christian. (:@ That may sound irrelevant, but it's true, and that's
who and what I am. %:) So it's relevant to everything. Christ bless you!

LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE GAME OF MOO
The game occurs in a restaurant or other public eating area... The
game begins when someone (call him/her person1) says (or whispers)
"moo". Then, the person to person1's right has to say "moo" louder.
This continues around the table. If a person refuses to participate
in the round or if that person doesn't say "moo" loud enough, that
person is out of the game. The game continues until either there's
only one person left (and that person's the winner) or the group is
thrown out (and everyone loses).
Happy Mooing!!

Today's secret word is Bengal.
No definition for 'Bengal'. Maybe you mean:

therese (Suntioinen Therese M.):
Our written history is a catalogue of crime
The sordid and the powerful, the architects of time
The mother of invention, the oppression of the mild
The constant fear of scarcity, aggression as it's child
