We stand, united
individual, yet together.
For the world seems so much smaller
if only because we connected.



... See what I did there?

So now we're posting in poetry? Cool!

Let's see:

Such odd choice of board
Cause' now we must rhyme
So now I get bored
I don't have the time

Yes, I suck.

Hopefully I can remember a poem I wrote a while back, dedicated to someone that I wish that I could have met

It was in late October
That you came and went.
I wish I could have met you,
But you came before me.

Though I know that I have seen you
In a time that I needed to be saved.
You pushed me back,
And for that you deserve a thanks.

If it wasn't for you,
I would also be there,
With you, not down here
Where you left as you came.

(Ugh, I couldn't remember it, so I made it up as I went along...sorta)
(I suck at rhyming, which is why I do free verse)

Haiku is an art
That sticks to seven-beat lines
But sometimes you really just fail at preserving the proper scheme.

This thread is epic win
It's so good, it's a sin.
I've never seen it before
So my life has been a bore.
But with this thread in my life
There'll be so much less strife.

Oh, how this thread is fighting
To get itself out of Creative Writing.
And to those who feel the dear
Because those who put it here
It will never stop smiting!

Hooray for Limericks!

Haickus are easy.
But sometimes they don't make sense.

Wow, now I know why this is called The Wandering Thread. XD It is the poetry section huh? Well let me give it a try. Haven't wrote poetry in a very long time.

Strive to be the best
Make sure to get some rest
Take on any difficulties along the way
With a smile on your face
By doing that, you will have a good day
So try that today!

Meh...that is the best I can do. My skills needs some work ^^;

Cheesymitten July 7th, 2009 10:27 AM

Netto Azure July 9th, 2009 11:41 AM

Random news:

G8 pledges to boost food supplies

Quote:

Leaders of the G8 developed nations have pledged $20bn (£12bn) for efforts to boost food supplies to the hungry, on the final day of a summit in Italy.
The investment, which is $5bn more than had been expected, will fund a three-year initiative to help poor nations develop their own agriculture.
US President Barack Obama said the issue of food security was of huge importance to all nations in the world.
Richer nations had a moral obligation to help poorer nations, he said.
Mr Obama added that the G8 nations had agreed to commit $15bn for the new initiative going into Friday's meeting, but had then promised an additional $5bn in "hard commitments" during the talks.
"We do not view this assistance as an end in itself," he said.
"We believe that the purpose of aid must be to create the conditions where it's no longer needed, to help people become self-sufficient, provide for their families and lift their standards of living."
Mr Obama, who has relatives in Kenya, said he had drawn on his family's personal experience in his discussions with other world leaders.
The US will reportedly contribute some $3.5bn to the programme.
Mr Obama met representatives of Angola, Algeria, Nigeria and Senegal in L'Aquila, where the summit is being held. He will also meet Pope Benedict XVI in Rome before embarking on an African tour later on Friday.
African leaders had earlier urged G8 nations to live up to past aid pledges.
BBC economics correspondent Andrew Walker says the idea is to put more emphasis on helping people feed themselves.
That is to be achieved with more investment in the agriculture of developing countries, and the G8 nations - Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia and the US - will provide significant resources, our correspondent adds.
However, although the total amount of overseas development aid (ODA) was increased in 2008, the rich countries are still behind on their target to double aid that was made at the G8 Gleneagles Summit in 2005 - and Italy is among the laggards.
Not all the money pledged to the agriculture initiative at the summit will be new funding.
Kanaya Nwanze, president of the International Fund for Agricultural Development, told the BBC that he welcomed the announcement of more investment in agriculture in the developing world.
"It is time for us to switch because food security is not just food aid," he said.
"It is the ability of people to produce food locally and for them to be able to have access to local markets."
Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles Zenawi, who also attended Friday's talks, told Reuters news agency beforehand that the key message from African nations was that the G8 had to live up to its commitments.
Aid organisations have criticised some members for failing to deliver on the promise made at the 2005 G8 summit to increase annual aid levels to sub-Saharan Africa by $25bn by 2010.
Italy, the present summit host, has come under particular pressure for cutting, rather than increasing, aid this year.
Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has said the global economic crisis and Italy's mounting debts are responsible for a delay in Rome meeting its promises.

With the Global Recession...it's a good thing. But the whole Aid structure in Africa needs to be reexamined. =/

TRIFORCE89 July 10th, 2009 7:45 AM

The Incredibly Wandering Thread. I found you :o Your big brother DCC will over shadow you :C

Netto Azure July 10th, 2009 7:54 AM

Yes it will. Now anyone looking at the G-8 thing? :P

Neko July 10th, 2009 8:56 AM

Oh wow, I never even knew this thread existed until now. xD

As for the g8 thing, it's good that they're at lest funding for helping them produce their own food, instead of just giving them food. :) Though it reminds me of something we learned in US History this year.. I forget the word... is it Manifest Destiny? I'm not sure. xD All I know is that it means that bigger countries feel that it's their job to help smaller, underdeveloped countries.. something like that.

Percy Thrillington July 10th, 2009 9:04 AM

I can't believe I lost this thread when I was subscribed to it. You have to be pretty special to do that.

As for the G-8... It's better than I expected, at least.

Captain Fabio July 10th, 2009 9:14 AM

Found youuuuuuuu!
