[QUOTE="afishamongmany, post: 68914364, member: 314780"] [COLOR=#5900b3][U]An Amazonian Proverb[/U][/COLOR] [COLOR=#b30000]An Amazonian proverb screeched by a flailing bird[/COLOR] [SIZE=4][COLOR=#b30000]By all the forest creatures one balmy day was heard. A multicoloured parrot flying just for fun Fell towards the river and into it did plunge.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#00b300]An Amazonian gentleman canoeing by the spot Turned to his companion and said - not a lot - But - in his mind he pondered the proverb of the day And then he sagely nodded in an Amazonian way.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]What was the wisdom given, descending from the trees, By that multicolour parrot flying just to tease? As best as remember, as best as I recall 'T was, “'T is better to have flied and flailed Than not to have flied at all.”[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0059b3][COLOR=#80ff00]><>[/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
