  1. Humming bird in flight,
    Lend your delight,
    Amidst the scarlet —,
    Birds and the bees,
    Flock to the trees,
    Sounds of a nation dawning…

    Happy Birthday T&T.

  2. Its Very Hard For The People To Go Buy Some Thing In Grocers . It Takes Up The Whole Pension That They Get

    In Middle Of The Month They Cannot Get Any thing Beacause and They Have No Money They Should Have raise It To $ 3500.00 Or More
