World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki

“If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears” Cesare Pavese

Market Life

If you’re looking for a bargain
Or just some local jargon
You need not to far go
Just take it slow
At the Market Square
The shopkeepers are always fair

Harbour

When on your way
Pick up a cup of java
At the multipurpouse cafe
It may taste like molten lava
But Finns love their coffee
The darker and stronger
You can’t go wrong
And be labeled a softie!

Wide Angle

Heading towards the city centre
The tram tracks calling for adventure
The hustle and bustle on the street
Just the thing for a photo op and a tweet

Tight Angle

Arriving to the city
Feeling kind of giddy
A greeting view behind the barge
The Cathedral’s trio arch

World Wide Wednesday in Helsinki: Intro

This week’s World Wide Wednesday is visiting the town of Helsinki. A city way up north, where reindeer roam the streets, it snows in summer and people are rarely seen or heard of…

But seriously, a very nice summer city to visit, my former hometown and very clean, lush and sunny, except when it rains… And it does, a lot 😉 So welcome to Hel-sinki!

“There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept” Ansel Adams

Still Life

A frozen moment in time
Sometimes is just fine
You don’t always have to chime
And get your worth for the dime
It’s not a crime
To enjoy some downtime

Basking in the Sun

In the middle of the day
Steal a moment away
Go outside to play
In the end it will pay

Camouflage

Hidden, from prying eyes
And all kinds of spies
With my latest disguise

Stop!

Smoking not allowed
There is no silver line on this cloud
Don’t step on grass
It will break the glass
Stop, Don’t, No
Words made on the go

So now, I loudly yell:
“Rebell!
Break the spell!
And I will no one tell!”

Lush
Painted, with a soft brush
Adding some blush
Feeling the rush
Through my veins gush
Now time to hush
