ENTRY 1: POEM
The Rainbow
And Real Fun
by Jisnu Dunlop
|
The weave
of romance, friendship and love
Always alive, moving with the two Their hopes and sharing The strength and warmth Each can give Each can be free And then the play unfolds When each can Live for the other Nurturing and inspiring Only the problems unforgiven Could end . . . The rainbows and real fun The times outdoor and flush With each other and breezes The light fills both lives A beach is the edge of their one heart The sky the cover of the naked Excitement and delight In giving Giving Giving If it isn't giving It isn't living |

ENTRY 2: STORY
Two seeds
Two seeds
lay side by side in the fertile soil.
The first
seed said, "I want to grow! I want to send my roots deep into the soil
beneath me, and thrust my sprouts through the earth's crust above me ... I want
to unfurl my tender buds like banners to announce the arrival of spring ... I
want to feel the warmth of the sun on my face and the blessing of the morning
dew on my petals!"
And so she
grew...
The second
seed said, "Hmmmm. If I send my roots into the ground below, I don't know
what I will encounter in the dark. If I push my way through the hard soil above
me I may damage my delicate sprouts ... what if I let my buds open and a snail
tries to eat them? And if I were to open my blossoms, a small child may pull me
from the ground. No, it is much better for me to wait until it is safe."
And so she
waited...
A yard hen
scratching around in the early spring ground for food found the waiting seed
and promptly ate it.
Rhetorical
devices:
o Repetition: “I want to”; “If I…”
o Parallelism: "I want to send my roots deep
into the soil beneath me, and thrust my sprouts through the earth's crust above
me ... I want to unfurl my tender buds like banners to announce the arrival of
spring ... I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my face and the blessing of
the morning dew on my petals!"
“If I send my roots into the ground
below, I don't know what I will encounter in the dark. If I push my way through
the hard soil above me I may damage my delicate sprouts ... what if I let my
buds open and a snail tries to eat them? And if I were to open my blossoms, a
small child may pull me from the ground
Message: Change the attitude toward the life and seize the opportunity to grow without hesitation.

The ajar door with some hesitate eyes –the USA’s
attitude toward paying the debt for the China.

the big Panda (the China’s power)
Scared eyes in the dark rooms (showing the USA’s
difficult situation)
·
Bathos:
comparing the China with the Landlord who is asking for the rent ( USA’s debt).
The Landlord seems very angry and the tenants look so frightened, that means

This satire picture is a
warning for USA about the foreign debt. They are deep in China’s debt.
