you willing to swim with me


just last month, myself merely small


in the ocean of splendor
and light,


the reflections and distortions of us,


and now when I see the man from British Petroleum


lift you up dead from the plastic


bin of death,


he with a smile, you burned


and covered with red-black oil, torched


and pained, all I can think is that I loved your life,


the very air you exhaled when you rose,


old great mother, the beautiful swimmer,


the mosaic
growth of shell


so detailed, no part of you


simple, meaningless,


or able to be created


by any human,


only destroyed.


How can they learn


the secret importance


of your beaten heart,


the eyes of another intelligence


than ours, maybe greater,


with claws, flippers, plastron.


Forgive us for being thrown off true,


for our trespasses,


in the eddies
of the water


where we first walked.

Pronouns are words used to refer to things or people. They are have three different forms depending on how they are used in a sentence.

The three forms of pronouns are objective, nominative, and possessive.

Objective pronoun is used in a sentence when its function in a sentence is that of a subject or predicate. Few objective pronouns are I, you, he, she, it (singular) and you, they, we (plural).

Nominative pronoun is used in a sentence when the pronoun functions as a direct or indirect object, or also, the object of preposition. Some nominative pronouns are you, her, him, me, it (singular) and you, us, them (plural).

Lastly, a possessive pronoun is used as a way to portray ownership or possession such as mine, your, my, her, his (singular) and our, your, their (plural).

We are sending blankets and winter clothes to the earthquake victims we know, Katherine and her is the correct sentence.

In the above sentence, "her" is an objective pronoun because it serves the function of a direct object.

Describe how you passed a night at village when your bus broke down​
stepladder [879]

One naight, on my way home from school my bus broke down as we came to a village, so the bus driver got us a sub bus while we stayed in the tavern with this lady named Esmeralda who fed us mac and cheese. Soon after the sun had completely set and we realized the bus wasn't coming, so the bus driver arranged for us to stay at the Hotel across the street from the tavern. The next day at around noon, the bus had finally arrived, but by that time we'd missed half the school day. Instead of making us go back to school in the same clothes we wore yesterday, the principal granted us all schoolleave to go home early for the day... but the bus broke down again.
