Birdseye View of My Life

NEW ZEALAND IS ONCE AGAIN ON TOP,

ALL OF OUR PRAYING HAS PAYED OFF,

JUST LIKE ’87 WE HAVE CLAIMED VICTORY OVER ALL OTHER NATIONS.

A Special tribute to Apple Founder Steve Jobs.

I love my apple ipod and was sad to hear steve jobs passed away today- so young!

To all the Americans,

You are in my Prayers,

And to the Jobs family, thank you for sharing him with us for so long and possibly changing our technology forever.

As said by a New Zealand reporter,

” His dedication and determination made apple what it is today”.

He will take his place in heaven, just as he took his place on earth… APPLEISCOUSLY

England is 74 times smaller than the USA,
59 times smaller than Australia and
3 times smaller than Japan.

Where is England?

England is in north-west Europe and is in the southern part of Great Britain. It is an island country and also part of the United Kingdom (UK) .

England is the largest country in Great Britan and the UK. It is sometimes, wrongly, used in reference to the whole United Kingdom, the entire island of Great Britain, or indeed the British Isles. This is not only incorrect but can cause offence to people from other parts of the UK.

Nearly 84% of the population of the UK lives in England, mainly in the cities and metropolitan areas.

Does England have its own government?

England has not had a separate political identity since 1707, when Great Britain was established as a political entity. There is no government or parliament just for England.

How far is England from mainland Europe?

England is only 35 km from France and is now linked by a tunnel under the English Channel.

What is the land like in England?

The south of England is mostly low-lying land, with hills and agricultural land and the north of England is mostly covered in moorland and mountains.

The National Flag of England

Starry starry night

Paint your palet blue and grey
look out on a summer’s day
with eyes that know the darkness in my soul

Shadows on the hills

Sketch the trees and the daffodils
catch the breeze and the winter chills
in colours on the snowy linen land

Now I understand
what you tried to say to me
and how you suffered for your sanity
and how you tried to set them free
they would not listen they did not know how
perhaps they’ll listen now.

Starry starry night

Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
swirling clouds in violet haze
reflect in Vincent’s eyes of china blue
colours changing hue
morning fields of amber grain
weathered faces lined in pain
are soothed beneath the artist’s LOVING hand

Now I understand
what you tried to say to me
and how you suffered for your sanity
and how you tried to set them free
they would not listen they did not know how
perhaps they’ll listen now

For they could not love you
but still your love was true
and when no hope was left inside
on that starry starry night

You took your life as lover’s often do

But I could have told you,
Vincent,
this world was never ment for one as beautiful as you

Starry starry night

Portraits hung in empty halls
frameless heads on nameless walls
with eyes that watch the world and can’t forget
like the strangers that you’ve met

The ragged men in ragged clothes
a silver thorn
a bloody rose
lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow
now I think I know
what you tried to say to me
and how you suffered for your sanity
and how you tried to set them free
they would now listen
they’re not listening still

Perhaps they never will……..

Over the course of the Rugby World Cup, I will be putting a slide show up portraying the countrys with photos and captions.

Each Country participating in the World Cup will have a Slideshow dedicated to them.

From the snow covered mountains to the open dusty plains
There is a spirit that sacred to our nation
It is present in every women and it’s present in every man
It is the spirit of our nation, it is the spirit of our land

For the spirit of our nation
Is reflected in every plant and tree
In our mountain ranges in the valleys and our streams
We are a land of many people
And we are proud of where we have been

From the kiwi to the weka there is beauty to be seen
It is in every city and it’s present in every town
We are land of natural beauty living beneath the southern cross
We are a nation of natural wonder and we are second to none

We are the nation of New Zealand
We will welcome you with open arms
For the pride of our great nation
will always be present in our hearts
The spirit of our nation
will always be present throughout this land
As we live as one nation united beneath the southern sun
