Woman's Tongue

Think you a little din can daunt my ears?
Have I not in my time heard lions roar?
Have I not heard the ,puff'd up with winds,
Rage like an angry boar chafed with sweat?
Have I not heard great ordnance in the field,
And heaven's artillery thunder in the sky?
Have I not pitched battle heard
Loud'larums, neighing steeds,and trumpets'
clang?
And do you tell me of a woman's tongue,
That gives not half so great a blow to hear
As will a chestnut in a farmer's fire?

This seems a very apt poem by Will to express my current mood state at the moment trying to set up a blog .I'm afraid I could outdo a 'chestnut in a farmer's fire '. Have had such an awful time with this and I'm still not certain I got it right.I 'm intimidated by most things technical and am unfamiliar with the patois/corrupt speak of computer language.For my first entry I chose Shakespeare because he is my literary love.As I sip my tea with a slice of banana cake topped with passionfruit icing I'm planning the poems for this site.Hopefully I'll be able to work out how to post some nice art work as well...this is all looking very black and white.
