Feeling the power,

Chatterbox: Inkwell

Feeling the power,

Feeling the power, from eating a flower, that didn't taste well, it made me tell my brother my mother.  They made me go to the dungen in a tower.  Random poem.

back to the Inkwell

Just curious, do you want us to edit it?  I noticed you made a couple others, what about those?

Ha ha!  Sir Spammy says moak.  He got a mohawk!

Ooh! I love mohawks.  My dad used to have a mohawk.  He bleached it and it was high.  Though that was when he was a teenager, I never saw him like that...  xD

You write interesting poems. Oh and what in the name of Poseiden does o3o mean?

Elizabeth M, do you really live in Germany?  I'm asking because you know how to speak English.

Yes, I live in Germany. Sorry, but you can't expect everyone from Germany to be German. I'm not German.

Yes, she does live in Germany. She's bilingual. Actually, I think there are a great deal of people nowadays in non-English-speaking countries who know English because it's such a common language and so useful to know, but I think it's possible she might have lived in an English-speaking country at one point, because she said she wasn't quite fluent in German, and she clearly is fluent in English. Did you used to live in an English-speaking country, Elizabeth, just out of curiosity, and if so, which?

Also, Chad, have you ever considered writing a limmerick or clerihew? I think you'd be good at them.

You haven't answered Charlotte's question, by the way.

Cricket has subscribers all over the world. Some are American families in the military or foreign service. But there are others for whom English is a second language. And some schools in China subscriber to Spider magazine as a way for its students to study English.

I lived in the USA till I was 10. My dad works here. English is my first language and I guess you could say that German is my second...

 Just for fun:

I habe in den USA gewohnt bis ich zehn war. Mein Vater arbeitet hier. Englisch ist meine Muttersprache und Deutsch ist eigentlich meine zweite Sprache.

Direct Translation. Well not exactly. It's not perfect(probably). As I have said before.

I'm half French and half American, so I speak both. 

 

P.S. I live in India right now, but I don't speak the local language.

I looked up o3o and I found out it's a face kissing you.  The O's are eyes and the three is lips

@ALD: Really, you live in India?! That is so awesome! In history we just took our test on ancient India, it's a really amazing country from what I've known about it, do you like it there?
