"TANJOOBERRYMUTTS"...



(The Chinese waiter is hidden in the pic, maybe to conceal his identity...:)  :-)  :-)
"TANJOOBERRYMUTTS"...
By the time you read through this YOU WILL UNDERSTAND "TANJOOBERRYMUTTS"...and be ready for China .
 In order to continue getting-by in China , we need to learn English the way it is spoken.......................
The following conversation-sort-of-interview went this way and you have to read it over and over again until you are able to understand the term "TANJOOBERRYMUTTS".
With a little patience, you'll be able to fit right in.
Now, here goes...


The following is a telephonic exchange between maybe you as a hotel
guest and room-service today......

DAB HAND


Daintily
Amazingly
Brilliantly

He strokes on
A canvas and a
New masterpiece is
Delightedly given life.

Departed Against Her Will



Tiny, unwanted
Sinless, innocent
Little fetus, departed
From her mother's womb.


She will cry no more
Giggle and laugh no more
Play and dance no more
Live and grow no more.


She was put to rest prematurely
Went back to dust forlornly 
She will never see the light of this world
And see the beauty of it all.


She will no longer feel the love of her mother
Or have the chance to know her real father
She can no longer make her mother happy
Or make her father proud of her.


Poor, guiltless, pitiful little fetus
She was not given the chance to live
To prove her worth or gift
For she was so helpless and was forced
To depart from her mother's womb.

The wonder of it all...

A hot and long shower.....




....soothes my tired body and sad feelings....




A walk in the park.....




......sounds romantic to me.....




A hot cup of tea, coffee, chocolate or milk.....





.....keeps me going.....





Crying my heart out.....



......let the tears fall, feels better after it.....




On top of a mountain.....
..I'd be amazed with God's creations.....

A walk in the beach.....



.....I long to have one.....



A soft touch on my hand.....



.....I'd feel feverish.......


A kiss on the cheeks.....


.....that's so sweet of you......



Whispers "I love you....."


.....my heart goes pitter-patter....


Tells me he misses me....


...Oh, I'm on cloud 9....




A call before I sleep....




....gives me a deep slumber.....




A tight hug....



.....I feel safe in his arms....



He'd write a poem for me.....



..I'll forever remember it....





He'd asks me "how are you today?...."




....feels he cares for me.....




Alone in my room....





.....gives me the needed solitude....



And so my blogging buddies, what can it do to you, too???? Share me....:)

DONA NOBIS PACEM







GRANT US PEACE

God Almighty
Reach us
A world in chaos
Needing
Total harmony.

Universal pandemonium
Sickening sight.

Peoples of
Every nation
Are victims of
Confusion, anarchy
Endless bedlam.
