Asslam Alikum everyone
this a poem a good one actually by Wiliam Shakespeare

All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.
And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,
His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,



I hope you like it..
it was in a play called "As you like it"


Fee Aman Allah.

Well, I am glad you liked it.. the play "As you like it" is suppose to be really good one of Shakespear's great plays I havn't read it yet
it is one of the plays that not everyone dies and somehow it has a good endings as you all know Shakespeare loves to kill as much as possible characters in the play or make it as misrable as he can..!
so I think he wrote this one among a few other with happy ends when he was upset or something!
