An American SF story which takes place on the day that the first humans to colonise another planet are about to start their journey there. A husband and wife are supposed to go together, but the wife doesn't know that the husband has been banned from the mission because there was something wrong with his lungs, he has yet to tell her. The story is divided up into alinea's by lines from the Start Spangled Banner. Can't remember the writer, can't remember the name... do you?

I've just finished reading Margot Fonteyn's life story, extremely interesting. Before that I read Candace Bushnell's latest book Lipstick Jungle, also enjoyed it. And now I'm going to read Louise Bagshaw's last book Sparkles. All her others were really funny, so I suspect this one will be too. How about you?!!

You Ask me for Verses
by Jose Rizal
You bid me now to strike the lyre,
That mute and torn so long has lain:
And yet I cannot wake the strain,
Nor will the Muse one note inspire!
Coldly it shakes in accenta dire,
As if my soul itself to wring,
And when its sound seems but to fling
A jest at its own low lament;
So in sad isolation pent,
My soul can neither feel nor sing.
There was a time-ah, 't is too true -
But that time long ago has past -
When upon me the Muse had cast
Indulgent smile and friendship's due;
But of that age now all too few
The thoughts that with me yet will stay;
As from the hours of festive play
There linger on mysterious notes,
And in our minds the memory floats
Of minstrelsy and music gay.
A plant I am, that scarcely grown,
Was torn from out its Eastern bed,
Where all around perfume is shed,
And life but as a dream is known;
The land that I can call my own,
By me forgotten ne'er to be,
Where trilling birds their song taught me,
And cascades with their ceaseless roar,
And all along the apreading shore
The murmurs of the sounding sea.
While yet in childhood's happy day,
I learned upon its sun to smile,
And in my breast there seems the while
Seething volcanic fires to play.
A bard I was, my wish alway
To call upon the fleeting wind,
With all the force of verse and mind:
"Go forth, and spread around its flame
From zone to zone with glad acclaim,
And earth to heaven together bind !"
But it I left, and now no more -
Like a tree that is broken and sere -
My natal gods bring the echo clear
Of songs that in past times they bore;
Wide seas I cross'd to foreign shore,
With hope of change and other fate;
My folly waa made clear too late,
For in the place of good I sought
The seas reveal'd unto me naught,
But made death's specter on me wait.
All these fond fancies that were mine,
AIl love, all feeling, all emprise,
Were left beneath the sunny skies,
Which o'er that flowery region shine;
So press no more that plea of thine,
For songs of love from out a heart
That coldly liea a thing apart;
Since now with tortur'd soul I haste
Unresting o'er the desert waste,
And lifeless gone is all the art.

Where Once Began, And Time Ended

These wings are broken.
And cannot fly,
They felt the air once,
As it would brush by their silver feathers,
These wings remain folded ,

These eyes no longer see.
And cannot describe your face,
They absorbed the colors of meadows and mountains once,
They drank in the blowing of leaves and the falling of snow,
But they no longer see,

These ears no longer hear.
And cannot tell you the sounds that pulsate through open doors,
Although they were witness to ‘once upon a times,
To the laughing of birds,
There only there now,

This voice no longer speaks.
And cannot tell you this poem,
Although it spoke of beauty and pain,
And whispered thoughts of politics and humor,
This voice no longer works,

And with this I say by both a Hello and goodbye.
A how are you and fine,

I cannot feel the wind blow against my broken wings,
Or see the sights beyond me,
Nor can I hear the laughter of nature or speak of its very existence,

I can though no matter what I loose or what in time gain
Fall victim to sever my world of imagination
My place where illusion and reality run ramped

My mind where all of these words stem from
And form emotions and ideas
That conceive images of detail and delicateness

For this is where once
began

And where time had ended

Eternity(Thank you)

And forever and ever will it be you that will make me think that I am so clever

Every night walk and bedside joke

The best of wishes and the proudest of smiles

That meant so much when I was feeling blue

Without you would be like having no clue

To the truth that you’re my Elmer’s glue

Thank you

And forever and ever it will be you that I’ll always remember

For the cry’s but most of all the lies you’ve overcome

You are truly the definition of what a mother is and what a mother means

Yeah, we all mess up

But you fixed all mistakes and did without the tiniest of regrets

And forever and ever it will be you that will make me think eternity was really the thought of how you always are there even in bad weather

Thank you
