Good morning one and all!
How did you sleep?
I was up at the crack of dawn today...I'm an Early-bird. Are you an early-bird  or a night-Owl ?
crack of dawn = very early in the morning
early bird = person who gets (rises) up very early in the morning
night owl = person who goes to sleep very late at night
 
Do you like Poems? Poems can be very good ways to help us with our english. Here's a link to some sites where you can learn more about Poems and how they can help you learn English - http://www.eslcafe.com/search/Poetry/index.html
 
Speaking of Poems, here are some of my favourites;
 
This is a beautiful poem that reminds us of the importance of reading, especially to our children;
 
The Reading Mother - Strickland Gillilan

I had a Mother who read me things
That wholesome life to a child's heart brings –
Stories that stir with an upward touch.
Oh that every Mother were such!

You may have tangible wealth untold
Caskets of jewels and coffers of gold.
Richer than I you can never be.
I had a Mother who read to me.
 
I like poems that are short, because they aren't boring...
 
First by 'the greatest'...Mohammed Ali -        
         
Me, we.
 
Another, by the same man that wrote Reading Mother  (Fleas are small very anoying insects) -
 
Fleas
 
Adam had'em
 
That's it for today everyone. I hope you have a very relaxing and peaceful Sunday, maybe watch an English movie or listen to some English songs?
