Wonderful Me

On one side the fence
On the other the trees,
Right in the middle
There's powerful me.

I am made out of watts
I am made out of amps,
Whenever they touch me
They never fail to scamp.

I am made out of rubber
I am made out of wire,
I am made out something
That could start a fire.

I am made out of concrete
I am made out of volts,
Whatever might happen
It isn't my fault.
Or else like a fuse,
or else like a pop,
I would keep shooting out
My powerful wisdom
And never to STOP!

Right in the middle
There's powerful me,
On one side the fence
On the other the trees.

Why Is It So Important To Say Sorry?

It was always a nice day in Fishville, the current was smooth and the locals were very affectionate. There's a Whale that is extremely delightful and pleasant. He's always busy looking after things but he'll make you fit into his space fitting timetable. Then there's Shark, he's highly nasty and terribly, rapidly speedy and a definite boaster. (He thinks he's the bees knees).

The Whale was busy teaching the kids that it is very important to say sorry.
"It is very important to say sorry because if you don't people may not forgive you and you may lose some friends," He explained to the fascinated kids. Then the deafening sound of the Shark came bounding in, breaking the little kids masterpieces.
"What ought to be going on in here?"Asked the nasty Shark with his deep dark voice, while pulling off the kids colourful paintings.
"School, and if you want the receptionist she is on her lunch break," Replied the slightly agitated Whale.
"You broke everyones paintings!" Screeched a little kid upsettingly.
"I don't care!!" Yelled the Shark.
"If you come stomping in here and break my students masterpieces you should just get out!"

The Shark was swimming up towards the sky when...
CAPTURED!!! The Shark had gotten caught by a greedy old fishermans net!
"Help, please someone help" He cried. His screeching voice echoed althrough the township of Fishville. The whale had heard this horrible noise and rushed to help Shark straight away.
"Whats happened here asked the Whale with a puzzeled look on his face.
"I don't know, can you please help me," with desperation all over his face.
"On one condition, you have to be nice to people for now on and say sorry to everyone once I have gotten you out of this net" Explained the Whale with determination all over his face.
"Ok I will" said the Shark with honesty. Once the Whale was done the Shark said sorry to everyone and they all forgave him.

Moral:No matter how big or small you are, treat others the way you want to be treated and people will change you will just have to wait.

A mother said to her son,
darling you are my number one,
don't feel bad,
listen to your dad,
but if he goes,
by those foes,
do not weep,
his soul you shall keep,
so off you go,
kill more than one foe.'
And that's what a kiwi mother said one hundred years ago,
but do not forget,
I promise and bet,
another mother said the same thing to her son,
on the other side of the world,
shedding the same tear one by one.

And off they went to world war one.
