She is not a Serious Person You Take

She is not a serious person you take
Not that kind of person you merely name
Sometimes things just out of her way
And she can hardly explain the fate
But you should know this is not true for what she's made
Yes, certainly, for my sake.

Somehow the falling rain is drenching in her pain
Let no one but her feel so vain.

And she's not a serious person again
When you see her train of thought,
I would say no one but her understand
One thing would keep her in mind,
As if some treasure seemed to be found and make her fain,
Keeping her walking from the beginning to the end.

Now I close my lids and think of what I gain,
But why the falling rain's still drenching in my pain?
Let no one but I feel so vain.

    Wow, you are so superb!
    Does it take you a long time to compose the poem?I think it is hard for me to compose a poem with rhyming.

    Thanks for your compliment, ha~ :D
    (Actually,I have other poems which are published on another blog.)
    Well, you know I work at English Dep. Office on Wednesdays. Actually, I usually wait until everyone in the office gets off except for me, and then I can concentrate on and get down to write something that had happened around me. And this moment somehow gives me inspiration from time to time. So I usually spend 30 to 40 minutes writing essays or composing poetry. It is also my favorite moment by the way. After finishing it, I’ll leave the office and go home. Besides, I think poetry is a good writing type that you can give it a try. Its rhyming can be a little hard, but when it comes to the intuition and inspiration, which can push you to think actively, it’ll make you compose faster than the essays. Compared to "That's How We Meet," this one is much better for not being time-consuming.

Notes on W. S. Merwin's "Tergvinder's Stone"

Image
Take one of your favorite stories from our course text , Sudden Fiction Continued , and comment on its characterization, narrative techniques, or other psychological or circumstantial aspects that make your selected story an evocative one.   60% Tergvinder's Stone   by W. S. Merwin   In W. S. Merwin's "Tergvinder’s Stone," a man called Tergvinder carries a plain-looking stone from the bottom of his drive. He does not explain much about the stone to anyone. Troubled by the insomnia, Tergvinder thinks that his problem in life can never be solved if discovering that he was still alive. However, Tergvinder does not face the problem rightly in reality. Although people around him take the stone of no use, Tergvinder regards it as his spiritual comfort for he seems to find the fellow-feeling from the stone in some certain attitude. The protagonist, Tergvinder, perhaps he does not know the illness has been invading him step by step. Here the illness does not w

Why Does Antonio Still Lend Money To Bassanio? (my viewpoint in temporariness)

Image
I'm pretty glad I've made the decision of my own. Because I have been always recognized as the Hamlet who seems to live in this modern time, I usually become very indecisive and melancholy. Oh, god, yeah, it is me, truly me, believe it or not. Besides, it occurs to me to think about a character in The Merchant of Venice , written by Shakespeare. That guy is Antonio. This week teacher asked us why Antonio still lends a great deal of money to Bassanio. My interpretation for this question might focus on the psychological aspect of Antonio. The story is set for them as a pair of good friend. However, Antonio is born to be melancholy for no reasons, but he sometimes is looking forward to seeing Bassanio come over. Seen in this light, I wonder Antonio has a great passion on getting together with Bassanio since Antonio feel a great comfort and relief from Bassanio through talking with and getting together with him. The moment they spend seems to give Antonio an inexplicable feeling

Take a look at learning attitude through Emerson's idea

Image
100/3/11 I've been thinking about today's lecture in American Literature. We were talking about American literary author, Ralph Waldo Emerson. And we read one of his works called "The American Scholar." In this essay, Emerson put more emphasis on independent thinking, which meant people should think differently on their own and avoid following others. Moreover, he stated that people's abilities were distributed by the whole soceity, which could not be unified as a complete man. Upon learning Emerson's viewpoint, I began to think about it. But it was weird that my family and friends barely mentioned such an important thinking, and I had never thought of this before. Ralph Waldo Emerson in his study in October 1879. Hence I wonder whether it is our culture affected by the way we think. You know that this society is full of richness and diversity. However, our education somehow is stuck in focusing on study only. If we spent less time on study, we sho

A Hidden Element: British Rock 'n' Roll

Image
Now I am getting better to deal with my messy things. As I trun back to listen my favorite British rock songs, I feel totally alive at the moment. It's quite hard to explain that Brit-rock music can heal my gloomy mentality and can even kick those messy things off out of my sight temporarily. Recently I've found some very excellent Brtish rock bands, and their performances are immensely extraordinary! Maybe that is how I begin to bend on them and their music. Furthermore, when I suffer from my queer habits(one of my personality which I call for myself), I get a quite strong feeling to grasp the meaning of lyrics from songs and listen to their music deep in thought. I know this kind of behaviour is pretty weird, yet I feel full of vigour and enthusiasm in exploring Brit-rock music. Most people think rock music is pretty noisy and defines it as a decadent music. But I don't think so. Actually, there are more rock music bands expressing themselves to satirize social injusti

Ronan Keating, Who Touches My Heart Feeling

Image
Guess what? I begin to listen to the songs of Ronan Keating again. One night evening it was quiet, and the indistinct melody occurred in my mind. However I wasn't sure I had heard it before, so I kept trying my best to figure out what the song it was. And I was pretty eager for I wanted to listen to this kind of melody right now. Finally, Ronan's face occurred in my mind and one of his songs also followed his image. Yes, it is the song called "If Tomorrow Never Comes," which is quite an old song since I was about 12 or 13 years old, listening to his song everyday and could not control myself to stop while I was taking a bath, doing my assignment and even snatched a bit free moment in studying.  Ronan Keating, this handsome and humble guy has been rooted in my heart in a long period of time. Can you believe it? It has been almost ten years for I am still a fan of Ronan Keating. So when it comes to his songs again, physically, I got a goose bumps all over m
