Andrew says I'll do anything to get out of writing a blog post. I have resorted to bad poetry. We've put up a bunch of pictures and videos from this past trip at the links on the right, and those will probably help fill out the story if these expertly penned Haikus leave something to be desired. :-)
Ode to My Hammock
Soft, swinging hammock
Fit me, 3 kids, a monkey,
Until someone peed.
Upon teaching a new game
30 jungle kids
Squealing during Red Rover-
“Send the big Gringo”
The worst part
Approached by drunk men,
Peaceful moment smashed- lost, and
nothing can be done?
Adapted Quote from Andrew W. Roe
“could this be heaven;
they treat us like we're special
but don’t expect much”
Philosophical moments in the Mosquito Net
Frisky rats tonight.
Lying awake I wonder
what will happen next.
Modern evangelism
New TV next door
Shows U.S. movies loudly
Now kids play war games
Family time after dinner in San Antonio
After dark we sit
talking, singing by candles.
I want life like this.
Thoughts on Culture
What does it mean when
a teenage boy is thrilled by
a coloring book?
Thoughts on Societies
When all that you have
is the Land and your neighbors
living gets more real.
