Hi everybody. I'm from Romania. I studied english in high-school and then university, i also speak italian and a little bit of french.
I love to read, travell and listen to music.
I found this forum a week ago ande since then i've been enjoying it a lot.
I just recently discovered Miss Juliette Faraone, a fabulously talented young girl who one day will recognized.
See for yourself;
"What is Truth"
He speaks from depths that none have seen.
None come this far, the calm serene.
The peace that greets all at the gate,
The want and hope to meet one's fate.
For more than truth has he to gain.
Forsakes his own for victory's pain.
To bear the burden of grim defeat,
Would you think life be near so sweet?
Or dare one man in realms below
Think of death as life's mere foe?
For beyond that rightly simple ruse,
There stands in deep and dank sinews
A greater peace than life could find;
Unlock the mysteries of the mind.
Slowly now, take the reaper's hand,
and step into a better land.
Traipse just once through this abyss.
Fear no wrath; seek only bliss.
One needs look up to hear, he thought,
Of what was ill and what was wrought.
To gather oneself together again
The doer must be only inches from vain.
For prejudice comes as tolerance goes,
Misusing one's mind strikes fatal blows.
Wipes out mankind and lingers not.
Strikes the deed from the boiling pot,
The vat of instances, ne'er do wells
Shall think of love as hatred swells;
Its chamber filled, its torch unmasked,
Glory-spun and beauty-basked.
Do to me as the latter may heed.
Again, to traipse is not misdeed.
This is my own, from a few days ago;
The Word Friend
When I think of you, I think of the word friend
Because you are real, never having to pretend
Never discarding me like I was the next trend
Whenever I get into trouble, you always defend
When I need some help, a hand you will lend
You speak in a way, never having to condescend
Not ever using words I can't really comprehend
You know what it takes for my feelings to mend
You don't need to say sorry to make an amend
Throughout everything that we've had to contend
I know you're there, your strength will never bend
When my heart is low with no more to extend
You take my hand and to the heavens we'll ascend
You give me your strength as both our spirits blend
Gently and slowly, together both of us descend
I'm so very happy that you chose me to befriend
I know that you'll be with me until the very end
Thank You, Friend

Hi people! My name's Max. I'm from Argentina.
I'm studying System Engineering in the university. I'm working in pc repair now, while looking for a better paid job.
My favourite author is Borges, but I also have read with pleasure to O. Henry, Hemingway, Asimov. Well, the list could be really long...
Hi...welcome to all the new people.
Wow, how frightened I am by the success.. and.. the vocabularies!
I'm Sam, from Australia... How I long to leave this place.
Anyway, I'm the Shakespearey / Oscar Wilde type (Shakespearey?) and I joined to expand my diminutive knowledge of literature.. and perhaps to hear suggestions of great reads, so on. I also may be secretly hoping that some of this intelligence and eloquence may rub off on me.
Haita everybody. I am Khanyi from South Africa, just joined today because I landed here whilst doing my search. I am more into African Womanist literature, but I also teach World literatures. Please convince me that this is the best place to be! I am looking foward to sharing with you.
