December's poem

Short Random Poems Birds are chirping; Children are singing, while guitar is playing --- Lonely hearts are longing; Tears falling Smiles fading --- Rain, thunder and wind together; They, You and Me singing all together To bad rain never stop ----- Haiku shortly and truly amazing Surely Heart and Mind are thoroughly bleeding Rules are fantastically and perfectly tempting --- Haiku, Keiko is my friend She lives in Edo new Name Tokyo Hour away from Kyoto, Japan

"What the hell is the difference?" asked the father. The son replied, "That's exactly what I said to my teacher and that's why I failed the maths test.

October's joke for ESO (2012)

Genie joke A woman is walking along a beach when she finds an old oil lamp. She picks it up and rubs it, and out comes a genie. The genie says to the woman, "Thank you for freeing me from the oil lamp. I will grant you three wishes, but whatever you wish for, your horrible ex-husband will get twice as much. What is your first wish?" The woman says, "I'd like a million dollars in my bank account, please!" The genie says, "You now have a million dollars in your bank account, and your ex-husband now has two million dollars. What is your second wish?" The woman says, "I've always wanted a nice car. I'd like a brand new Rolls-Royce, please!" The genie says, "You now have a new Rolls-Royce in your garage at home, and your ex-husband now has two new Rolls-Royces. What is your third wish?" The woman thought for a while and then said, "I'd like you to remove one of my kidneys, please!"

September's poem for BACH and CFGM

A love (from short poems) Tears in my eyes over you, I am feeling low and blue; Though love is everywhere I go, My heart doesn’t care. But I try to find it here, In my trials everywhere; As I go along with feelings of my own, That is unborn or not known. Peter S. Quinn

MARCH'S SONG FOR BACHILLERATO

RIHANNA. "Don't Stop The Music"


Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the music

It's getting late
I'm making my way over to my favourite place
I gotta get my body moving
Shake the stress away
I wasn't looking for nobody when you looked my way
Possible candidate, yeah
Who knew
That you'd be up in here looking like you do
You're making staying over here, impossible
Baby, I must say your aura is incredible
If you don't have to go, don't

Do you know what you started?
I just came here to party
But now we're rocking on the dance floor, actin' naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand, chest to chest and now we're face to face

[CHORUS]
I wanna take you away
Let's escape into the music, DJ let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin' to it
Please don't stop the, please don't stop the music
I wanna take you away
Let's escape into the music, DJ let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin' to it
Please don't stop the, please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

Baby are you ready cause it's getting close
Don't you feel the passion ready to explode?
What goes on between us no-one has to know
This is a private show

Do you know what you started?
I just came here to party
But now we're rocking on the dance floor, actin' naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand, chest to chest and now we're face to face

[CHORUS]

[x4]
Please don't stop the music

[CHORUS x2]

Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the music

MARCH'S JOKE FOR ESO

LONG GRASS
One afternoon a wealthy laywer was sitting in the back of his ,
limousine being driven to work, when he saw two men eating grass
by the side of the road.

He ordered his driver to stop, and then he got out to investigate.

"Why are you eating grass?" he asked the men.

"Sir, we don't have any money for food," one of the men replied.

"Come along with me," instructed the lawyer.

The first man said, "But sir, I have a wife and two children. They
are also hungry."

"Bring them along too," replied the lawyer.

The second man said, "Sir, I have a wife and six children. Can they
come as well, please?"

"No problem, bring them as well," answered the lawyer as he climbed
back into his limo.

Finally, they were all in the limo - the lawyer, the two men, their
two wives and eight children.

One of the men said, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank you for taking all
of us with you."

The lawyer replied, "No problem, there will be plenty to eat at my home.
The grass is almost half a metre tall."

February's song for BACHILLERATO.

SWEET CAROLINE BY NEIL DIAMOND
*If you want to see Diamond singing the song go to VIDEO SONGS. You can write a comment about it below!

"Sweet Caroline"
Where it began,I can't begin to knowin'
But then I know it's growing strong
Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Who'd have believed you'd come along.
Hands, touchin' hands
Reachin' out, touchin' me touchin' you
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
But now I, look at the night
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two.
And when I hurt,
Hurtin' runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when I'm with you
Warm, touchin' warm
Reachin' out, touchin' me touchin' you
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined,
To believe they never would
Oh, no, no
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
Sweet Caroline,I believe they never could
Sweet Caroline.........

January's song for Bachillerato

BRUNO MARS. IT WILL RAIN
http://www.stlyrics.com/lyrics/twilightsagabreakingdawn/itwillrain.htm

If you ever leave me, baby,
Leave some morphine at my door
Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have,We don't have it anymore.
There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor, oh
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm making
Will keep you by my side
Will keep you from walking out the door.
Cause there'll be no sunlight if I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies if I lose you, baby
Just let the clouds,my eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, it will rain,rain, rain
I'll never be your mother's favorite
Your daddy can't even look me in the eye
Oooh if I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
Saying there goes my little girlwalking with that troublesome guy
But they're just afraid of something they can't understand
Oooh well little darling watch me change their minds
Yea for you I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make you mine
Cause there'll be no sunlight if I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies if I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds,my eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, it will rain,rain, rainOoooh
Don't you saygoodbye, don't just say, goodbye
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it rightCause there'll be no sunlight if I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skiesif I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds,my eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, it will rain,rain, rain...
