Globe-trotting Haikus, Wandering Thoughts Aug 26 I never say words That are simple and quite short In my own language I feel quite useful To my friends that speak just one A dictionary To utter goodbye In everything but English Is to meet again Are you offended? Should I not have tried at all? I’ll still keep trying. Switzerland has four I don’t feel lost in the least Possibilities A worldwide language Is that even possible? It’s been tried before Russian is useful Other Slavic tongues surround Words are understood Danku, merci bien Grazie mille ragazza That wasn’t so hard I wish to respect I want to learn the culture Please answer in kind Non ho il tempo Per tutte le lingue qui Vergogna per me Would you prefer if I garbled up all your words Or thought you knew mine? You cannot learn it In the states or at your school It has to be lived Oui, je peux parler Si tu veux that I do so Did I say that right ? Why is it English? Whatever happened to French? Ah, the modern times Quante parole Devo dire per fare Amicizia ? Italy one day That is the dream in my heart Absorb and become The key to the world Rests in your mouth on your tongue Open it up now.
