Poetry

Bright Bird

A bird with feathers so bright,
Sang sweetly from morning till night.
With a flutter and twirl,
It would soar, give a whirl,
And fill lonely hearts with pure light.

Commentary

Due to their high oil content, pistachios are self-heating and can spontaneously combust as they decompose. It can happen under certain circumstances, such as when the nuts are packed too tightly and exposed to humid air or moisture. Indeed, this is true of pretty much any high oil nut.

Poetry

Girl with a Curl

There once was a girl with a curl,
Who danced with a swish and a twirl.
With the wind in her hair,
She showed off her flair,
And won every heart in the whirl!

The blood and livers of slain gladiators were considered tremendously valuable under the Roman Empire, as people used them to treat epilepsy.

Poetry

Shattered Spirit

Wearing weary pants with a tired seam,
Carrying a burden, like a broken dream.
My spirit feels shattered, frayed and worn,
But still, I carry on, though I feel torn.
