Like I said in a previous post about the lunar festival, got all coins with my lvl 67 priest. Only died in Ogrimmar when some lvl 70 hordies helped out the guards. Without their help I could've just run in and out without harm. That death was pretty ok though because I still needed the coin close to the graveyard. Spirit healer rez, get coin and on my way to Thunderbluff. Also hard to get the coin, but once I had it, jumped down and used levitate. Funny when one of the guards still wanted to chase me and seeing him fall down the cliff :-)

Tying knots actually worked pretty well.
The knots fulled into impermeability in the wash, so I had to cut them off to hang the wrap to dry. Next time, I'll try to tie them so that they are all about the same distance away from the closest pick.
I'm going to wait until I'm ready to give the wrap away to press it, remove the waste yarn, and trim all of the ends. Part of me keeps thinking I might get a fringe-twister at some point, so waiting to do the final finishing steps makes sense.
Overall, I'm really happy with it.
I also wove the BFL I spun into a scarf and fulled it in the same way. It's quite pretty. My edges look better, to me, at least.

The newest version of our app has arrived.
TWC members,
You can make straight bars even gayer.
A new version of our iPhone app just launched. Download it here.
Three things to know about it:
1. It allows in-event commenting. "Just got here, where is everyone?" "Bringing 18 friends. #Prepare." "Bar is full, let's head next door." And other memorable moments can be logged right in the app. Finally.
2. It's iOS 6 compatible - we don't know what that means either, but we're super excited about it!!
3. We're already working on the next version, which will be even more social. (And Android will be here shortly.)
Because every bar should be a gay bar…

Frontman Jared Leto says he feels 30 Seconds to Mars ' recently-released album, Love Lust Faith + Dreams , is the beginning of a new musical direction for the group.
"This album is a new chapter," he tells Rolling Stone . "It feels like a new band, like we let go a lot of the past. It's not just a rock record -- it's more expansive, it digs deeper. It gets a lot more involved."
Leto adds that he's happy with the band's new sound, which is "more focused and decisive" than the group's previous three albums. "I feel like we've made the best album of our lives, hands down, because we've learned a lot about who we were," he explains.
30 Seconds to Mars will be promoting Love Lust Faith + Dreams when the band drops by TBS' Conan on Wednesday night.

The cliches of guitars, sweat and beers - that bring to mind dudes who've watched Airheads a few too many times - have modern parallels in bands, garages, D.I.Y. labels, basements and studios too numerous to mention or give a shit about. However, FIDLAR is a breath of fresh air amid this age of censored hiss and pop. It's like your favorite band when you were 15 but only louder, more drunk and ready to ollie your head just to bail the board on your teeth because, as the acronym states - Fuck It Dog, Life's A Risk.
Hailing from L.A., FIDLAR - made up of Zac, Elvis, Brandon, Ryan and Danny - started playing together in 2009 and after a year of leaking their demos with 'found footage' music videos that glorified teenage breasts, shaking asses, smoking meth, shooting guns and the entire opening credits of Top Secret - FIDLAR rele...

|Smart Growth: Building an Enduring Business by Managing the Risks of Growth (Columbia Business School Publishing)
|Edward D. Hess
|Wall Street believes that all public companies should grow smoothly and continuously, as evidenced by ever-increasing quarterly earnings, and that all companies either "grow or die." Introducing a research-based growth model called "Smart Growth," Edward D. Hess challenges this ethos and its dangerous mentality, which often deters real growth and pressures businesses to create, manufacture, and purchase noncore earnings just to appease Wall Street.Smart Growth accounts for the complexity of growth from the perspective of organization, process, change, leadership, cognition, risk management, employee engagement, and human dynamics. Authentic growth is much more than a strategy or a desired result. It is a process characterized by complex change, entrepreneurial action, experimental learning, and the management of risk. Hess draws on extensive public and private company research, incorporating case studies of Best Buy, Sysco, UPS, Costco, Starbucks, McDonalds, Coca Cola, Room & Board, Home Depot, Tiffany & Company, P&G, and Jet Blue. With conceptual innovations such as an Authentic Earnings and Growth System framework, a seven-step growth funnel pipeline, a Growth Decision Template, and a Growth Risks Audit, Hess provides a blueprint for an enduring business that strives to be better, rather than simply bigger.

|Transitioning Ownership in the Private Company : The ESOP Solution
|David Binns, Marshal Hyman, Ron Bernstein and Martin Staubus

|Slam-Dunking Wal-Mart!
|Al Norman
|"Slam-Dunking Wal-Mart" is written in two parts. The first part describes why Wal-Mart, Home Depot and their kin are a threat to small community life in America.

The book is a call for the preservation of all the qualities we love about hometown America. It is one man's David versus Goliath story. It can also be a road map for your community's fight to keep its downtown businesses and core values.

As I sit here over the Atlantic Ocean on my way to Ireland I have butterflies in my stomach. I'm nervous, but at the same time excited for what lies ahead. I have played golf in Ireland 6 times over the past 7 years so I am familiar with what I will see. Yet, those trips were for a week's time and I was always in the company of friends. This time, 10 weeks of golf lie ahead of me and I am riding solo on this one. When I told people what I had planned for the summer, the first question was always, "Has your wife signed off on this?" When I tell them yes, the next question comes, "How did you get her to agree to that?" To be honest, I didn't have to do any convincing. That's not to say that I thought she would be all for this before I brought it up to her. The fact is, I was leaving my job for good and her for 10 weeks. Yet my passion for Irish golf was clear to her and she said she would support me in this project any way she could. I could not have done this without her.Now, a once in a lifetime golfing adventure is before me. 56 rounds of golf in 70 days on some of the best links the world has to offer. It is an aggressive agenda no doubt, but there is much golf to be played here and courses not to be missed. There are 155 true links golf courses in the world and close to 40% of them are in Ireland. I want to make sure I see as many of them as possible.Golf in Ireland is a treasure not to be missed and it is something that all golfers should experience at least once in their lifetime. The Scottish may have invented golf, but the Irish perfected it. So follow along with me here over the next 10 weeks as it is sure to be a trip filled with great golf, comical stories, and remarkable people from all over the world. I am proud to have partnered with FootJoy on this project and it should be a summer never to forget.
- Mike
Dear Friend of FootJoy,
Summer has arrived and we hope you enjoy your golf. When you hear from us at FootJoy, we often tell you about exciting new products and contests, or ask you to celebrate major victories from the thousands of Tour Professionals who trust FootJoy products every week. Whilst we will continue to keep you informed on the product and Tour fronts, we're going to mix things up a bit.
It is with great pleasure that we introduce you to one of your fellow FootJoy enthusiasts, Mr. Michael O'Toole. Mike is not a Golf Professional, nor does he have aspirations to make golf his profession. Mike is an avid golfer, a 34-year old, six handicap who wrote us a very inspiring letter about his passion for traveling to Ireland and playing golf on the Emerald Isle. Mike recently departed for a TEN week, FIFTY-SIX round golfing trip along the coast of Ireland. FootJoy is getting involved by supporting Mike with all the necessary gear to keep him dry and comfortable: DryJoys golf shoes , DryJoys Performance Rainwear , RainGrip Gloves , Umbrellas, etc. Ireland can obviously offer some challenging weather conditions, so Mike reached out for assistance from the leader in waterproofing!
In return for some great performance products, Mike will share with us several blog entries, entitled "O'Tooles of the Trade", which will cover such topics as:
* Some of the great golf courses he has played
* Tips on how to prepare for Irish weather!
* Inspirations for this 10-week trip
* Some of the lesser-known, but amazing places to play
* How he sold his wife on this 10-week trip!
* Great stories from long-time Irish Caddies
* Travel tips and/or unusual stories from various Pubs/B&Bs.
You can follow Mike's journey via a custom Google Map, click here !
Cristie Kerr fired a final round 70 (-1), including an 18-foot birdie putt on the 14th hole to take the lead, and held on to win the U.S. Women's Open by two strokes over her nearest competitors. Kerr, who made only two bogeys over her final 45 holes, finished the week with a 279 (-5) total, en route to her first career major and 10th career victory.
Cristie trusted FootJoy golf shoes and a StaSof glove for the biggest win of her career.

Phone Companies Off The Hook
The House of Representatives has approved the latest version of the wiretapping bill.
That means the telcos have effectively got the legal immunity they wanted so badly.
The Senate still has to vote on the bill, but a majority of members have already come out in support of an immunity provision, so it would appear to be a done deal.
The vote is a major loss for the plaintiffs in various cases consolidated before a federal judge in San Francisco.
More on the vote here.

Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the CDC, alarmed healthcare providers with the announcement on Tuesday, March 5 of a dangerous super bug, Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), and has urged hospitals and nursing homes to protect patients and families through vigorous hand hygiene programs.
Currently, almost all CRE infections occur in people receiving significant medical care, according to a CDC news release. CRE are usually transmitted from person-to-person, often on the hands of health care workers.
In 2012, CDC released a concise, practical CRE prevention toolkit with in-depth recommendations to control CRE transmission in hospitals, long-term acute care facilities, and nursing homes:

It's slightly difficult to hear, but if you've got a decent sound system, turn it up and he definitely says "could". Past tense guys.
Everything's too ambiguous.. =_=;; why can't you just tell us bryke…
Maybe not past tense, but wish tense? Like, "not even your mother could bend a metal so pure if she were ever to come in...
And my dreams of toph and Sokka as old people is ruined
Worst life
yeah i still think shes dead but its possible

Managing User Access
You must have the Application Administrator role assigned to your LiveCycle ES2 user account in order to develop applications. In this role, you can assign limited access to the application development environment for users who have other roles assigned. You can permit other users to have the following type of access:
- Read: The user can view the application.
- Delegate: Although the user is not the Application Administrator, that user can extend read/write permissions to another user.
- Write: The user can modify the application and save the changes.
Essentially one can classify user permissions under the following two categories:
- Role Based Permissions
- Resource Level Permissions
Role Based Permissions typically would cover the roles that the user has been assigned via the Role Assignment interface and this supersedes the "Resource Level Permission " which are assigned via the Manage Access interface as described in the following link.
In order to achieve the above scenario one would need to ensure that the user has not been assigned any such permissions which would otherwise allow the user to perform the Read/Delegate/Write operations on an application.

Re-build lucene indexes for Content Services
- Abhijit Ghosh, TRT Engineer @ Adobe
Content services uses the filesystem to store Apache Lucene indexes (/lucene-indexes). At times we are faced with the need of re-building indexes hence just wanted to summarize the ways in which the same can be achieved:
1. Include the JVM argument –Dindex.recovery.mode=FULL and restart the server.
2. Stop the server, delete the lucene indexes under the index root directory and restart the server.
3. Change the index directory to a different location during restart so that indexes are re-built again.

We were recently working on a customer scenario who wanted to make a custom code call during server startup.In order to achieve the same you would need to implement theLoad interface in your custom component as described below:
In the component.xml you would need to use the load-class tag in for the classes which implement the same and are to be loaded.

Kettle Bottom Trail
Trail near Trenton,
"A pleasant ride through the trees, rhododendron, and mountain laurel."

Virtual Ride
DescriptionThe Kettle Bottom Trail is an intermediate-rated loop trail in Cloudland Canyon State Park's Five Points Trail System. It begins and ends at the "hub" which serves at the central point in the trail system.
This trail is not technical in nature, although there are a few descents and "intersections" of old closed trails that can certainly cause confusion among the less experienced. A shortcut provides an alternate bypass of a large chunk of the trail before you get very far down it. There is a bridge on this trail at the bottom of a somewhat steep descent. Most of the trail is fairly wide, although there are a few narrow spots on it. At about the half-way mark, the trail goes along the edge of a power line easement and re-enters the woods. It then continues rolling along the hillside on its way back to the hub.
Keep in mind that this trail intersects other paths that appear to be trails, but are not. Closed intersecting paths (most of these were used as access routes for machinery during trail construction) will typically have brush or logs blocking passage.

Windows 7
Computer freeze when playing all games !
Hey there.
Im sorry if the same problem have posted on this forum. But i didnt find anything
Right. I installed Windows 7 pro 64 bit yesterday. Complete fresh installation. Everthing went smooth and i installed all drivers for my components. 64 bit drivers.
After installing some games again. Like Borderlands and the left 4 dead 2 demo i started running into a problem. pretty serious one.
Every now and then my computer freeze for about 10 seconds. Nothing works. Not even the sound. After 10 sec the main screen (Dual monitors, extended desktop) goes black and i get the sound from ventrilo while the screen is still black. After some jumping into the game and my desktop i get back into the game and i can continue to play like nothing ever happened
What is weird is that my second monitor works when my main monitor is black
My secundary monitor is a samsung t240 (lcd) and my main monitor is a samsung syncmaster 997 mb (crt) if that has anything to do with anything.
The crt is connected with a VGA connector and the lcd with a dvi connector.
My system is as follows.
Asus rampage formula x48 motherboard.
Intel core 2 duo E8600 3.33 Ghz
His Radeon HD 4870 X2
4gb OCZ ddr2 1066mhz
The freeze problem ocurs randomly. and i have no ideas to anything that can couse it
Is it the 64 bit ati drivers that couse this ?
Another problem is when i alt+tab out of counter strike 1.6.
Main screen goes black and lcd acts like normal
Not sure if it happens in singleplayer. But i know for sure its happening in Multiplayer

The Martyr of the Solway - John Everett Millais, 1871
On May 1, 1947, Evelyn McHale leapt to her death from the observation deck of the Empire State Building. Photo: Robert Wiles. LIFE May 12, 1947
On May Day, just after leaving her fiancé, 23-year-old Evelyn McHale wrote a note. 'He is much better off without me … I wouldn't make a good wife for anybody' She went to the observation platform of the Empire State Building. In her desperate determination she leaped clear of the setbacks and hit a United Nations limousine parked at the curb. Across the street photography student Robert Wiles heard an explosive crash. Just four minutes after Evelyn McHale's death Wiles got this picture of death's violence and its composure.

Chapter Nine.3 Reviews
now what happens? Yes yes, I do suck at summaries. :]
Remember, I own nobody! :]
Day 1 - Out Of The Mental Institution
Mikey's POV.
I groaned waking up. I heard sirens and smelled something burning. My eyes snapped open and I tried to jump up, but something held me back. I looked around, I was on a stretcher. There was a paramedic, "It's alright, don't worry, you're fine." He gave me a small smile to reassure me. I nodded, but then I remembered Gerard. "Gerard!" My voice came out in a choked whisper. The paramedic looked at me, "What?" "Gerard!", I tried again, my voice still barely above a whisper. Damn me and not talking for that long. I looked around frantically, trying to find him. The paramedic finally caught on, "Oh, you mean the other guy the firefighters got out?" I nodded, finally happy that he understood me. I saw him point to a figure lying on another stretcher. I quickly got up, ignoring the paramedics protests and went straight over to my brother. I looked down at him, he was out. I could tell he was still breathing, but I was still sad. "I'm so sorry", I still couldn't talk above a whisper. I guess I would have to work on that...
Day 7
Mikey's POV.
I was so glad to be out. So happy, but...was I really ready? Honestly? I mean sure, the voices haven't really talked to me much. But does that mean that I'm cured? Can I even be cured? I was staring at the table in the living room. We were at our house. Me and Gerard I mean. I always had the habit of staring off.
Gerard's POV.
I swear he doesn't listen. "Mikey! Are you even listening!?" He snapped his head up, finally hearing me. I sighed. He looked at me, confused. Honestly, I had no idea what he was doing. It's like I have a mime for a brother. He doesn't talk. At all. "From now on you're being called Mime." He smiled. That tells me nothing. I asked him for the thosandth time, "Do you want to eat something?" He nodded yes. "What do you want?" He shrugged. I sighed again. "Forget it, I know what you like. I'll go find something." He looked up at me questioningly. Somehow I got what he meant, "Yes, fast food Mikey." This time it was his turn to sigh. I crossed my arms, "Would you rather cook?" He looked up nodding with a smile. I wish he would TALK. "Then go cook." He got up and went into the kitchen. I sighed again. Somehow I knew these next few months might be kind of hard...
Sorry about the shortness of it! So what do you think? Yes, no? Is Mikey cured? Is he still crazy? Does he need help still?? Hehe, this and more, in the next few chapters coming up! Or, at least I think...lol!! I'LL GIVE YOU A VIRTUAL GOODIE IF YOU REVIEW MY STORY!! YOU PICK WHAT YOU WANT! :] holds out virtual basket filled with treats Yummm. :) hehe. okay, I'll shut up. :]

Stendhal Syndrome Group ShowGraffiti // Friday, May 25, 2012
"Stendhal Syndrome is a psychosomatic illness that can cause rapid heartbeat, dizziness and hallucinations when an individual is exposed to art. Usually this condition occurs when the art is especially beautiful, or if a large amount of art are gathered in one place. What happens if you give ten of the modern graffiti art's foremost practitioners free to interpret this concept in a large turn of the century apartment in Stockholm?"

Kent TwitchellStreet Art // Tuesday, March 06, 2012
Arriving in Los Angeles in 1968, Kent Twitchell's impact on the mural movement was considerable. Many of his realism murals can still be seen around Los Angeles, although many fell victim to graffiti and weather deterioration over the last 15 years. Chances are you have seen some of these murals but never realized who was responsible. In 2008, Twitchell settled a lawsuit against 12 defendants and the U.S. Government for painting over a 70 –foot-tall landmark mural he had painted of Edward Ruscha.
Last week I asked for readers to send in their submissions for our Erotic Art dept. While this was in no form a contest, I'd like to present my FAVORITE submission from Brooklyn based artist Maxxx von Willmann. While he works in everything from painting to sculpture and photography, he sent over a selection of erotic photography, and here's just a teaser... 'Willmann's fierce and difficult vision makes each work a battle ground for control of the psychological...

Week 5
Geno Ice! Rookie Stuns Atlanta, Comes Up Huge For 'Fearless' Jets
Jets guard Willie Colon said quarterback Geno Smith didn't give any sort of "Disney pep talk" before leading Monday night's game-winning drive. The rookie just went in and got the job done.
Lichtenstein: Jets Make Critics Eat Crow — Myself Included
Last week, I pegged the Jets as not ready for prime time. Hence the crow, which I'll gladly chow down if it means I've just witnessed the turning point in the maturity of Gang Green.
Giants' Coughlin Says Eli Critics Should Blame Him Instead
If somebody is going to take the blame for New York's miserable start, it's Tom Coughlin. The 67-year-old coach pointed the finger at himself for the Giants' worst start since the 1987 strike season.
Giants' Tuck After Dropping To 0-5: 'We Deserve To Get Booed'
Justin Tuck refuses to blame the New York Giants' woe-and-five start on quarterback Eli Manning and the team's struggling offense.
Palladino: Eli Manning Is Just A Shell Of Himself
Even if the Giants QB straightens himself out by Thursday's game in Chicago — another likely loss for 0-6 — it will be far too little, way too late. Like the cops at a crime scene say, "Go home, folks, nothing to see here."
NFL Week 5 Roundup: Broncos, Chiefs, Saints Remain Unbeaten
Only three of the NFL's five unbeaten teams could make it to five wins. Kansas City, New Orleans and Denver moved to 5-0 Sunday, while New England and Seattle finally lost.
Jets, Falcons Both 'Desperate' For A Win Monday Night
If the Falcons don't start winning, they can forget about those Super Bowl hopes. Meanwhile, the Jets don't want to slip below .500 — especially on national television.
Boomer & Carton: Jerry's Monday Morning Update
Jerry Recco wiped off his nose then began his first update of the morning with the latest surrounding the 0-5 New York Giants, after Eli Manning threw a few costly interceptions in the fourth quarter on Sunday.
Jets' Rex: Sanchez 'Played Better Than The Numbers Indicate'
Mark Sanchez finished 14 of 31 for 230 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions — but was done in by a few tipped passes.
Schwartz: Long Night Ahead For Jets Against Do-It-All Texans
Jet fans — start worrying! Any way you break this game down, it figures to be another struggle for Gang Green.
Dottino: Could It Be More Obvious? Bradshaw Gets Giants' Game Ball
Sometimes, these things are just too easy. Bradshaw put up career-highs with 30 carries and 200 yards to go with a touchdown.
Rex, Jets Out To Prove Mettle; Texans Don't Expect Easy Night
Houston has put the rest of the AFC on notice with their smothering defense and balanced, high-scoring offense. The Jets? Well, that's another story.
Osi Umenyiora's Son 'Better' After Hospitalization For Asthma Attack
The New York Daily News described Umenyiora as "frantic," declining to answer postgame questions.
Palladino: Next Man Up! Depth, Front Office Separates Giants From Jets
Hakeem Nicks remains down, Ramses Barden steps up. Barden goes down, Rueben Randle steps up. It goes like that for the Giants. Not so much for the Jets.
CBS Local Predictions: Week 5
In Week 4 we did pretty well, 9-4-1. It was nice to start winning some games again. That got us to .500 for the season and hopefully the trend continues in Week 5. Week 5 […]

It's here… 2014! A new year, a new frontier to blaze a path to a better life and a better you! Many women start the new year with resolutions to exercise more, lose weight, start a family, and many more. However, we say your main resolution should be to STAY HEALTHY! That starts with YOU! Before you embark on any lifestyle changes – whether that be exercising more, quitting smoking, losing weight, or starting a family – you should make sure your foundation, your body, is up to the task. Knowing that will help you start on and maintain your New Year's resolutions.
Have you had your yearly exam? While it's easy to overlook in today's crazy busy world, don't! Nothing will motivate you more than knowing your body is up to the task. There is more to your annual exam than just a PAP smear, too. It is also important to have a yearly pelvic exam which can detect fibroids, cysts, tumors, and other issues above and beyond your PAP smear. Aches and pains may be warning signs of underlying problems, so be sure to come in for your annual exam… well… annually, of course!
Are you planning on having a baby this year? Now would be a good time to get in shape, before you start your pregnancy. Exercise does wonders during pregnancy and getting into the habit before you get pregnant will help inspire you to stay healthy through your pregnancy. Exercise can help revitalize you and give you more energy which you'll need during pregnancy.
Speaking of exercise during pregnancy, you may wonder if it's safe and what exercises can you perform? Well, first and foremost, consult with your doctor BEFORE you start any exercise program during your pregnancy, whether that be your family practice physician or Dr. Tam. They can give you their expert medical opinion on how you should get into an exercise program and what program(s) may work best for your particular condition.
For instance, being 8 months into your pregnancy may be a bad time to start high impact aerobics or training for a triathlon, but starting yoga or swimming might be just fine. Dr. Tam, being an athlete herself (having run 27+ marathons during her lifetime) has great advice on an appropriate exercise program for you. For you pregnant runners out there, don't worry. Dr. Tam has plenty of experience helping you stay "on track" during your pregnancy.
Starting an exercise or weight loss program? You should also consult with your doctor before engaging in any weight loss / weight management program, or exercise program, even if you're not planning on getting pregnant in the near future. Your overall health should be taken into account and evaluated by your physician before subjecting yourself to any form of dieting and exercise. This will help prevent injury or the occurrence of other medical problems that may deter you from reaching your goals. Be careful with fad diets and weight loss supplements, too. Most of those don't work or can put a strain on your body and metabolism. Don't rely on informercial claims and promises. It's your body and your life. Make the smart choice and talk to your doctor FIRST!
With the new year ahead of you, it's time to make smart choices about you, your body, and your lifestyle.
Stay healthy and, above all, best wishes for an outstanding 2014!

India's star batsman Virat Kohli on Tuesday said his prolonged form slump was a bit "annoying", but staying calm and patient helped him overcome the lean phase, which is part and parcel in the career of international cricketers. Kohli marked his return to form with an unbeaten 77 in the last one-dayer in Ranchi against England after a string of low scores which had become a matter of concern for the team.
"I wasn't feeling the same as others might have about my form, to be honest. No one can keep scoring consistently for a period of 16 months. It's always a balance in international cricket. There will be a phase when you don't score in four-five games," Kohli said at the pre-match press conference ahead of the fourth ODI here on Wednesday. Read more

I empathize with college students who will be faced with a large increase in student loan interest rates if Congress cannot resolve its deadlock as described in two June 9 articles. However, post-high school education is not an entitlement.
Parents and their college-bound children need to be aware of costs and plan for them, including applying for loans.
As a parent of former college students and a former university administrator, I believe meeting the cost of college should include money earned and saved by students beginning no later than their first year in high school.
They should also strive for academic and other excellence in high school, partly to earn one or more scholarships. Parents should plan for partially funding the post-high school education of their children.
With respect to loans, if students understood that they were responsible for repaying the loans, they would be more focused and waste less time while earning their degrees.

See and share Beautiful Nature Photos and amazing photos of interesting places
These Spring Free Verse poems are examples of Free Verse poems about Spring. These are the best examples of Spring Free Verse poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
Oh I am but a simple leaf
withering within the gutter
one summer of bliss
now! Just an autumn flutter.
For some; destine to fall
upon stony ground, a part
of life's infernal gyration.
Yet for those that fall
within your reach, to live
on within your soul!
While limbs that stretch
towards the solstice, create
vivacious veins as channels of hope,
a pledge of foliation continues
to endure what spring has
furnished; autumn expires.
Yes! If we can but learn
from nature's complex simplicity,
that life be of a cycle
from the seed we are conceived,
then let spring be my beginning
winter my exultant eve!
Let our two cultures
merge as one, the
decomposed humus
to become the sustenance;
our transfusion the
new beginning.
Let us breathe the
fragrance of born again;
let each slender limb,
stout body bear our
tenaciousness, each lyrical
leaf our life's blood.
Let us mollycoddle each
precious tear that falls from a
angry sky; dance gracefully
upon the wind, embrace
on moonless nights, bathe
in summer madness.
Let us hear the bluebell call,
the daffodil pray, the apple
blossom bear witness; the
clamour of the field mouse
the pitapat of the butterfly
the silence of lovers in love.
Let us be sanctuary to the
symbolic songstress, scuttling
squirrel, vulgar urchin;
a fortress for the warrior
a haven for the pacifist
an inspiration for the poet!
The call of springtime
we will invoke,
logging representative
we will gladly choke;
nature's guardian.
"This! Obliging old oak."
Copyright Harry J Horsman 2000
The Happy Field and Spring Shower
Hand in hand, we fluttered like two butterflies
among the fragrant flowers of the field
and meandered, singing songs, along a stream.
No agendas to keep to; no schedules to curtail
the pure pleasure that we took
in consuming every lovely hour of our Saturday.
With our picnic lunch, we sat down on a blanket.
Later we lay looking up at clouds.
Transported to the wonderland of our imagination,
we named them fluffy mountain ranges,
bunnies, sheep, and Easter lily petals
until they morphed into lopsided bearded faces,
huge white polar bears and cotton-breathing dragons.
Unexpectedly, the clouds grew dark, and suddenly,
we saw and felt large raindrops splatter on our skin.
We fled our happy field, arriving home - two children,
wet and laughing, just as the spring shower let up.
How were we to know in the springtime of our lives
that the field and the rain from which we fled
I'd one day write about as metaphors for youth.
Written for the Spring Showers contest 3/30/13
There, just beyond the door yard, she wanders
and I, hiding behind the curtain, catch glimpses
before she disappears up the avenue
that winds through the apple orchard.
Each morning I watch for her as she walks aimlessly.
Sometimes she steps across her previous step and spins,
dragging a broken branch she found,
and with her eyes closed---smiles.
On occasion she willingly falls, lying there,
still smiling and staring dreamlike at the branches
now laden with white blossoms and the busy humming of bees.
I wish I could know her thoughts--
but then, I fear they might be of some other love
instead of the wonder of this perfect spring day,
or, maybe she dreams of that love that she hasn't yet found.
Perhaps tomorrow I'll stroll---and say "Hello"?
Weren't we partners in everything?
Didn't we talk, study and sing?
Weren't we innocent?
Weren't we kids?
Why aren't we so anymore?
Why each has a life?
Why each has a door?
Weren't we there together?
Weren't we enjoying spring and summer?
Why aren't we so today?
Why can't we have fun and play?
Why can't we share our talks and say?
Didn't you promise me to be my soul?
Didn't I feel shocked and suddenly fall?
Don't you remember... anything at all?
We aren't partners...
We aren't... at all!
So sweet a kiss
The murmuring tunes of Spring
In the fragrant breath of night
Hums within my slumbering ears.
Like the whispering trees dancing
In the softest dews descending
From the vapours of the skies
When the soothing night
Was young with the glimmering moon of May.
The poor labouring clouds expanded wide
In the muted distance ripe with coldness
While the storming of the Eastern wind
Drifted through the blossoming fields
Graced by the sultry springs in the lulling hours.
I pulled the weary drapes
When the night grew old with silence
From a crystal window
Mirrored against the dumb fields
Black with the night.
A soft mist exudes the dead wind
Curled around the nodding branches.
Then I stealed away to the vacant spot
Where a crackling fire
Invaded the mournful breath of silence.
Lipsing sounds intrudes the night
Upon the quiet slopes and verdant span
Where the blossoms gently bow
Kissing soft the silver spray
Fluttering in the starry distance.
There sauntered I
Under the gladsome sky
To pluck a cherry from its stem
Outstretched beneath the sobbing moon
That in the dawning misty hours
That silver orb of light expires
When the sun had greet the day
With a golden sigh!
April's last Flowers
I was watching carefully
The last stems
Of April's Red flowers
Which were spreading their beauty and smile
Unconcerned with the destiny
That after April
There would be almost no such flowers
Of red Lily
For another one year.01
The flowers were smiling
As if, it makes no difference to them
Whether, they would be here or not
When the hot winds of summer
Would try to wither and make dull
The beauty and grace
Of every human face
As often they succeed in withering
The beauty of flowers and life
That exits and breath
Without the love drops of life giving water.02
The last flowers of April
Were also unconcerned
That they would shrink and would get dried
By the heat and dust of summer
In the days to come
When the scorching Sun would
Burn the Earth, Sea and Water
To create the wonders of rains
For thirty lands and sky of the earth.03
What a great way to live life
Was prevailing
In these smiling last flowers of April
Alas! If only humans can understand
How to live a life with the pleasure of love
And get lost forever
Without the worries of tomorrows.04
The flowers were enjoying
Every moment of their existence
With the butterflies and black bees
Which were hovering on them
Since day one
And were trying to please and praise them
To win their hearts
Like men praise and please the women
When they want to attract and win their heart. 05
The hovering butterflies and bees too
Were trying to show their love
To all the beautiful flowers of April
Before the alluring beauty of these flowers
So that these alluring flowers
May allow them to come close and kiss them
In the flowering season of spring.06
Every time these symbols of love
The black bees, butterflies and
Even the little black tiny bird
Were coming close
To kiss and to touch the petals of flowers
They were charging with a new energy
After getting the love drops
From their beloved red flowers
And they were flying
More and more high in the sky
Perhaps to touch the those lofty heights
Which can only be seen
When nectar like love drops
Creates its magic on these searching lips
Filling it with the energy of love
Which get reflected in every new flight
Of these beautiful creatures
When they fly from one flower to another. 07
And I was watching silently
With a Camera in my hand
While witnessing
The last of these April flowers
To catch the glimpse of
Any of these memorable moments.08
Their silent game of nectar and pleasure hunt
Continued in that bright sunlight
As more and more new creatures
Were coming to please and to win their beloved
Standing there with its ravishing beauty
So that, they may welcome them
With a smile and beauty
And may allow them to taste
The nectar of these red beauty and love
Which starts pouring it's magic
With the approach of April
In spring every year. 09
Ravindra K Kapoor
Kanpur India 2nd May
I feel sad to day
I feel sad in heart to day, to see what is happening all around me
The season of spring is singing the tune of autumn
The Koyals* and nightingales have left without singing,
This beautiful garden and the trees,
Before the spring would have bloom them to sing,
In full throated ease and beauty
They have left the nest and the tree and even the Garden
To see all this
I am very sad to day, sad, very sad in heart
Adieu my friends, you are the birds, who could have sung,
Many more songs and would have given many more dreams,
To those who are still in the garden, in the hope of a Koyal's melody
But these are the dreams for awaken eyes
And not for those who are sleeping
As day dreams can be put to shape, but the dreams of sleeping eyes
Very rarely get a shape and are often get lost in sleep alone
I feel very sad,
To realize and to see things as they getting all around me
Kanpur India 31 01 2010
*Koyal . A melody singing bird of India (like the Nightingale of John Keats)
Koyal mainly sings in the season of spring.
Hark! Don't forsake me.
Search for me.
Look down low, in the underbrush.
I will be good for you.
Though I've been given just a little of our endless world,
I have the glowing fire of raging cordilleras,
The blazing sunsets of Equatorial skies,
The lustrous skin of succulent citrus.
I am orange truth.
Winter days so cold and dreary
Cause the soul to grow weak and weary
Ice has covered all the trees
It seems we are in a deep freeze
But Spring is coming to the rescue
Bringing hope and life anew
Blossoms will soon cover the trees
In will come the tropic breeze
Then will come the butterflies
Fluttering as they beautify
Followed by the bumblebees
As birds sing happily in the trees
Winter soon will have to go
As Spring comes in with gentle kiss
Proclaiming to the cold and snow
That winter thusly is dismissed
1 - 20- 2013
Soft sunlight streams through Nimbus clouds
A sign, a foretaste of coming spring
When hills and fields bring forth rich foliage
From humble green grass to royal heather
Flaunting peacock colors to honor the day
As clouds release their crystalline drops
Lovers' laughter echoes as they run for shelter
B'neath the old willow tree, they stand; lost in warm embrace
Soon, a hush will fall as sweet jasmine floats
When hungry lips taste the first kiss of spring
