      Yes, do you know this small city?

        Yes I have family there and I was supposed to go and live there for college and the Catholic University of Leuven. I have never been there. But I read much about it while I was planning and I fell in love with it. Haha. If I went there, I'd be even more in love with it! Haha. Beautiful pictures I just might enter this contest. I am not promising though. I have just 2 days left before I leave the country to go on holiday and I will be away from the internet. So yes. But I will definitely definitely try

        Much love
        Ylova

          Ah, you'd love both cities, Leuven and Antwerp. Leuven is a very big campus, lots of young people. Antwerp is well, a multicultural city. Excellent place to eat, specially chocolates, but you probably already knew that
          would be great to see a poem of yours here, but if not possible, then next time after your vacation, which I hope be lots of fun

    Here is one I wanted to post but know better not to:

    Oh Moon, I Thought They Had Wings!

    Under a golden moon in Paris, France
    I showed a pig a truffle
    contrary to what is often thought,
    the pig chose not to snuffle.

    I said, "Oh pig are you so smug
    with truffles you won't trifle?"
    agree or not, requiescat,
    ...I pitched him off the Eiffel.

    Yay, my first green!

    I wish I'd kept the other greens I had. I still want a blue one. Anyone know any easy classes? Don't say haiku...they are hard!

    I would complain about losing but I'm happy with my cute green trophy and the thirty points that I can send to my bank.

    Thanks Moon-Mariza.
