I've seen some wierd threads in my time.

This one is right up there. It's great.

You can't have a poetry thread without 'High Flight'

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there
I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.
Up, up the long delirious, burning blue,
I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace
Where never lark, or even eagle flew -
And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untresspassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand and touched the face of God.

Pilot Officer Gillespie Magee
No 412 squadron, RCAF
Killed 11 December 1941


(Repectfull Pause.....)





And for the pottery fans..

Okay this is not pottery , probably poetry
i'll share this with you today
Talks about D-Day ( obbiously )



D-Day

"Grab yourself a chair and Sit down could you
Gonna hear some news of military nature Relax,
while I give you the latest report
Sport?

And then, there was the finest sight
With all our boys were fixed to fight
On D-day, D-day, D-day, D-day

We hope they’ll soon be coming back
For now they're on a solid track.
Says D-day, D-day, D-day, D-day

It will take more than a weekend,
So let's be patient and calm
Cut out that public speaking,
Or we'll be evicted by the false alarm.

We've got to help with aiming to
survive those bars and I do mean YOU

in D-day, D-day, D-day, D-day"

Actually you can hear the song by clicking this link:

When hostilities commenced in europe in 1939 , it was realised the american people had no intention of entering the war but they believed that this country could be enticed into the war in very much the same way that it was enticed into the last one. They planned, first to prepare the united states for foreign war under the 'guise of american defence. second to involve us in the war step by step without our realisation. third to create a series of incidents which would force us into the actual conflict,these plans were of course to be covered and assisted by the full power of their propaganda, our theatres soon became filled with plays portraying the glory of war,newsreels lost all simbilance of objectivity as they have used the war to justify the restriction of congressional power and the acception of dictatorial procedures on the part of the president and his appointees, a fear campaign was inorgerated we cannot allow the natural passions and predjudices of other peoples to led all of us to slaughter
