Dinner in the oven
I just wrote it as I thought it a sad story for my dad but it had happy ending.
thank you friends and CS
I just read about the poem of our dear friend Paloma who had provided me with enormous amount of inspiration on the days when I was so low and down. I am better now and I hope we can, also share her fears and frustrations because this is what I love most of this place. Our ability to share our pains, sorrows and love give us strength when we need it. That is all.

Happiness is bad!
An article I came across in the Internet and translated for you. Don't know the author, and this is not my opinion, but I agree with the advice given by the scholars: the more you think about being happy and such things the less happy you feel. Better think about how fortunate you are to have been brought here on earth as a rational human being capable of all earthly and unearthly feelings. This is happiness in a true sense! I am thankful to God for each and every day of seeing the beauties of His creation all around!!!
Something's missing?!
After reading the article attached: living in spotlight may be disturbing, and in a fabulous career (maybe too fabulous) and glamorous life (maybe too glamorous) there must be something important missing… Thank you, dear poets.

HONESTY
I tried to write this poem in the style of some poems I learned and loved as a child. I have a special fondness for balanced rhyming poems. I think they are easier for children to learn. I believe it is important for children to learn the importance of honesty and I dedicate this poem to them.
