Pretty White Things
Before the night fall
The pretty whites stand tall
But soon around the secure branch
Their petals will sprawl

Pretty White Things
The sun ever so bright
Shining its light
On the petals white
Like a shiny white knight

“There are always flowers for those who want to see them” Henri Matisse
Pretty White Things
Pretty little white things
On the darkened branch stringed
Of the joys of spring
To a mellow tune they’ll sing
Happy Birthday to Sir Ian McKellen

Happy 77th birthday to Sir Ian McKellen
“I’m not quite as cool as I would like to be, really” Ian McKellen
Happy Birthday to Sir Ian McKellen
Listen what I’m tellin’
There’s a dude worth the yellin’
His name is McKellen
And he’s quite the fellow
Absolutely helluv’
An actor too!
Shakespeare, science fiction, fantasy
Add to that a good doze of reality
Each part done quite talently
So listen to me carefully
And sing along this melody
Let’s do this part formally
Join me loudly yellin’
Wishing Sir Ian McKellen
A very happy birthday!
Chocolate is The Answer, Who Cares What the Question is! (TBT)

“There are four basic food groups: milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate, and chocolate truffles” ~Author Unknown
Chocolate is The Answer, Who Cares What the Question is!
You may be iconic
But also diabolic
It’s quite symbolic
To call me a ‘holic
But still I frolic
When I get glycogenic
Pining for your taste
Of the full flavour laced
With truffles
My mouth muffled
When I eat
My favourite treat
My life in dire straits
Would be
Without the traits
You offer me
Oh sweet Chocolate
Thee

“Anything is good if it’s made of chocolate” Jo Brand
My Little Piece of Heaven
There is just
something about you
I am in lust
And only for you
I am finding it impossible
to stay away
Highly improbable
Anything would keep me at bay
I lost you
Luckily
I found you
My little bit of Heaven
By sweet sweet
I am up to seven
My one and only treat
My sweet chocolate bar
In a serial package
You didn’t venture too far
When I was tracking

“To have my cake and eat it too?… hm… eat it!”
Chocolate Cake 
It’s just a cake
Nothing fake
Some sugar and spice
All the things nice
And do not forget
The best ingredient
What is it?
What else for a ‘holic
But dark chocolate

Throwback Thursday
On Thursdays we walk down memory lane and dig deeply into the archives of Rantings Of A Third Kind. For these posts, I have chosen some of my personal favourites. Some of them may tickle the funny bone, some even provoke thoughts and some of them will give you a view of the world in photographs taken by yours truly.
This week’s Throwback Thursday is dedicated to Chocolate.
What was the question? Who cares, the answer is Chocolate!
Enjoy!

“I write because I don’t know what I think until I read what I say.”
― Flannery O’Connor
Quote a Week Tuesday (2016-05-24)
For this week’s quote, I have chosen two thoughts for those moments, when you hit that phase, where you are staring at the blank screen, ready to start pulling your hair and pondering on; WHY? WHY? WHY?
“I write only because
There is a voice within me
That will not be still”
― Sylvia Plath, Letters Home

Mundane Monday
“I have always been caught by the pull of the unremarkable, by the easily missed, infinitely nourishing beauty of the mundane.” Tana French, Broken Harbour
Monday, Bloody Mundane Monday!
Just another Monday
That’s after Sunday
I wish it was Friday
Or at least Thursday
Much closer to Saturday
The one true fun-day
Oh, I kind of lost track on Tuesday
And also Wednesday,
Known as little Saturday
So I know my weekdays
But one fact remains
I really do hate Mondays!!!
