Frog (&) Prince

Never saw such a beautiful and not frightening frog as seen in http://www.rainforestsos.org ad
and there's Kermit too!

I'm surprised to see that [English] sense of humor :)

Foreign Farming

I remember Fatima Bhutto saying this in a session in the second day of Ubud Writers and Readers Festival 2009:

"Saudi Arabia . . . plant their corps in Pakistan to feed its people . . . [recently] thousands of Pakistani line up for food"

My Love, in the Garden

L'amour de moi, s'y est enclose
Dedans un jolie jardinet
Ou croit la rose et le muguet
Y aussi fait la passerose

Ce jardinet est bel et plaisant
Il est garni de toutes fleurs
On y prend son ébettement
Autant la nuit comme le jour

Helas il n'est si douce chose
Que de ce doux rossignolet
Qui chante au soir et au matinet
Quand il est las il se repose

Ce jardinet est bel et plaisant
Il est garni de toutes fleurs
On y prend son ébettement
Autant la nuit comme le jour

(L'Amour de Moi, Mediaeval Baebes)

This is How The Harvest Time Comes

seed thrown on a field by a man
he then goes to bed
he forgets about it

The seed sprouts
and grows
how it happens
he has no idea

without his help
The earth does it all:
first a green stem of grass
then a bud
then the ripened grain

Harvest time!
