Trade Centre, I've seen in some books,
So I well remember the looks !!
It stood on its tod,
A lonesome bod
Now the broth has too many cooks!!

What keeps Dubai on the boil ,
Is Abu Dhabi's great oil,
Dubai's on a "simmer",
Which is more than a glimmer.
It prevents it from returning to toil.

Here everything is being built, from nothing,
Like a good dream, the world are guarding.
Babel did fall down,
We do it again, we anounce,
Even in different languages, can we go on clubbing.

The Irish may have won the Grand Slam,
But the Welsh don't give a dam
The Welsh lost the Crown,
But aren't feeling down
They lost , but did not yield like Welsh lamb

Souwesterlies blow across the river Wye
To aid red kites, into the sky
Birdlovers flock to this special site
To watch these graceful birds, in flight
A picture is taken of a bird flockin' shy

Robby seems to like watching birds,
and his poem used evocative words,
so it may be last night,
set some people right,
that poetry's not just for the nerds!

Thank God that the weekend is here,
no more boss to come bending your ear,
but I'm wondering, in rhyme,
who will have a good time
without filling their bellies with beer?
(me for one
)

gtmash is so proud of his car
his engine you'll hear from afar
but the poor lad can't see
it's just size of pee-pee
that makes boys need a great big 'jam jar'.

SOMEONE is good with each rhyme,
The rhythm is right every time,

But that CAMEL's a rhymer sublime !!

How does it feel to be the 'poeminister'
A title you do not have to register,
So cool~~!
That can be a tool!
To gain oneself a dozen of...oyster...

Would WhiteJade like to buy me seafood?
How to answer, without being lewd?
Does the lady quixotic
know oysters are erotic,
and are known eaten best in the nude!

This is called 'culture difference'
That we don't see that kind of reference,
We see food,
Not nude,
Shall all of us give it a discussion on/in
a conference?

Be a gentleman, or be a 'nude man'
It is all in your hand, human.
'Life's too short to be afraid,
take a pill to numb the pain'
Whatever happens, get up and dress up, man!

WhiteJade can fulfil all your wishes,
she'd light your life (but not do dishes).
Show perfect behaviour
and she'd be your saviour,
of her cane you'd feel no swishes!

Of DF our RedKite is the bard,
finding rhyming so easy, not hard.
Quick fingers he's ten,
using keyboard not pen,
and on Celtic hist'ry, he's a card!

RobbyG as we all know is Dutch,
he still smokes, but not very much.
These days Robby's eye
is turned to Dubai;
streets paved with gold he hopes to touch
he still smokes, but not very much.

Saw an aged smoking his pipe,
Marching along with his tribe,
In pajamas!
Wearing Damas...
Gee...that is too weird scene to like...

WhiteJade has now been at the pipe
but it's opium she's seeming to like!
She's seen a weird scene
what can it all mean?
Good Lord, is that fish on a bike??

Now Speedie is trying to rhyme ,
And it works most of the time ,
But "pipe" and that "bike"
Are not even alike !!
Unless his smoked hash is sublime !!

RK also has his bad days
when his rhymes don't set poetry ablaze.
8th of Feb was a dog,
maybe brain filled with fog?
Before chiding, he needs look both ways!

To rhyme 'pipe' with 'bike' has been decried,
but 'Poetic License' was applied!
If they match near enough
then the poem's not rough.
It's a 'slant rhyme', and it ain't offside!

Missing a lot there out,
Another day,
Has passed away,
Bless me with power, to carry out...

Our Jade today feels a bit low,
tried hard but got nothing to show.
Still a fresh day tomorrow
may chase away sorrow,
so get back your 'get up and go'!

Bump! It is me next in line,
I see our rattles combine,
With a slight touch of frost,
My hands are sputtering this post,
One way or the other, I'll be fine

Now Dubai Forums is the place,
they care not what colour the face.
Brown, black, white or yellow
they welcome the fellow,
welcome to the great human race!
