In Which we have a beautiful Christmas Eve 2025

Good morning, my dear friend, reader of this present post! Happy Wednesday, and a beautiful merry Christmas eve, I wish to you all! How are you, today? How have you been? You know I have been on that tug of war balance of the season, I want to rest, but I also want to write, but I also feel fatigued, but my brain has ideas to write about and to draw. Organizing them is hard, and as such, I struggle and so on... it has more than two sides, the mentioned tug of war, and as such, it is a complex situation. I have some moments of joy, and some others of deep fatigue, and I do feel my brain tired. I am okay, though, and I am thrilled to be able to experience another Christmas eve, the 27th of my life! It will be the big day tomorrow, of course. Nothing special in my own life will happen, and I hope for no conflict and no distress, but on such a special season, every moment is a joy, ideally.  For sake of personal tradition, I am at the house of grandma at least for the eve. I will retur...

In which the author shares a poem he made!! "The Birkenia"

Hello to you all, happy Monday and good night to you all!!!! How are you doing and how things are going?? As usual, I wish you the best and I do hope things are going fine with you, and you had a nice day!! As for me, college was fine, but the day was extremely hot, so that's sad, but now it's night so things are a little more chill, so anyway, things are fine. I'm just happy to be writing this post and sharing it with you, dear reader! And today I have a different thing to share with you guys! A poem I made, on a Silurian fish called Birkenia, who was nothing like a modern fish, the kind of ones we see on the rivers today!!!! 

Here's a Birkenia, by the way, lovely fish


This is how it goes, guys, it's my first poem, probably it's crappy, but who knows, maybe you'll like it! And maybe I'll read it better and grow to like it more! Let's jump to it!

THE BIRKENIA
By Daniel M.

The Birkenia is swimming in the Silurian River
With difficulty he goes in the silver waters of the river
More like dragging himself he goes as he has no flippers
Only a thick skin he has to cover him from his shivers.

Poor Birkenia has no jaws
So his small mouth is always open
In hopes of getting his food on the grond.

And those Ross-like Paleontologists say he's an "able" swimmer
How could he swim with no flippers?
How could hee eat with no jaws?
How funny is life for this Birkenia
What can this fish do
For him these are no flaws!

He can only keep on going
Defying biology as his stomach grows
So is the life of Birkenia in the Silurian Age.

He doesn't know his name
It was given  him by us humans
As he's uncovered from earth
He has been dead for Eons.


And this odd poem is what we have for today! This poem was THE STRUGGLE for me, it felt like I was left in a maze and the way to scape it is only by using words! I just had the Birkenia stucked in my head for YEARS and finally now he's out of my head and swimming into life again through my words! I'll try to write more poems about the words that doesn't leave my head, probably ones related to Paleontology cause I love it and it has so many complicated names! I still want to write about the plant Cooksonia and the shores of a Ordovician sea. But that will stay for another ocasion, for now Birkenia is all we have.
You're the very best, see you on Sketch Wednesday!!!
