Age is just a number,, she break the world record.

70-year-old woman smashes world record with a ludicrously fast marathon time .

A pensioner is making us all look bad after completing the Boston Marathon with a ridiculously quick time .


70-year-old Jeannie Rice, set a new world record for her age category after finishing the race in just under three and a half hours. She did it in 3:27:50, to be exact.
The grandmother, from Ohio, casually crossed the finish line and said she felt absolutely fine.
The previous record for the 70+ women’s category was three hours, 35 minutes and 29 seconds, set by Helga Miketta in 2013. Jeannie crushed that record by more than seven minutes – and made it in to work the following Tuesday.
Jeannie has been running marathons her whole life, with her debut in 1984 in Cleveland. Her fastest recorded time was three hours and 16 minutes at her second attempt in Columbus. Chicago was her 116th marathon.

Racism is everywhere around me.

Of human injorance i am almost in despair For racism is around me everywhere But like thay say sheer ignorance is bliss Just like Judas betrayed Jesus with a Kiss. Some people carry their honour in a flag And Of their nacinality they brag They feel superior And they differentiate And againts those who are different they Discriminate. So many people still judged by their race For such there never ought to be a place A fair go-- those untruthful words i do recall There is no such a thing as a - fair go for all. Though we live in a so called democracy Of racism we never well be free They judge you by where you come from and the colour Of your skin For many equality and respect seems impossibile to win. Its been awhile since the days Of Martin Luther King His name to it has a familiar ring If against racism he did not chosse to strive Today the great man he would be alive. So many holding the reins Of power not spiritually aware And racism is around me everywhere...

Take me now.........

Take me now, baby,here as i am  Hold me close, try and understand  Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe  Love is a banquet on which we feed  Come on now ,try and understand  The way I feel under your command  Take my hand, come under cover  They can't hurt you now  Because the night belongs to lovers  Because the night belongs to us Because the night belongs to lovers  Because the night belongs to us Have I doubt, baby, when I'm alone  Love is a ring on the telephone  Love is an angel, disguised as lust  Here in our bed ' til the morning comes  Come on now, try and understand  The way I feel under your command  Take my hand, come under cover  They can't hurt you now  Because the night belongs to lovers  Because the night belongs to us  Because the night belongs to lovers  Because the night belongs to us  With Love we...

A White rose...

The Red rose whispers off passion, And the White rose breathes off love. O,the Red rose is a falcon, And the White is a dove. But I sent you a cream -White rosebud With a flush on its petal tips. For the love that is purest and sweetest Has a kiss of desire on the lisp. ©poem around the world.
