“Some people say
Rhyming is but a sin.
Little sins are fun
So try, before you bin.”
Max Nowaz, Timbi's Dream

Bill Bryson

James Clavell, Shōgun

Richard Adams, Shardik

Aesop
“A SWALLOW, returning from abroad and especially fond of dwelling with men, built herself a nest in the wall of a Court of Justice and there hatched seven young birds. A Serpent gliding past the nest from its hole in the wall ate up the young unfledged nestlings. The Swallow, finding her nest empty, lamented greatly and exclaimed: "Woe to me a stranger! that in this place where all others' rights are protected, I alone should suffer wrong.”
Aesop, Aesop's Fables
