“I prefer the mystic clouds of nostalgia to the real thing, to be honest” Robert Wyatt
Fluffy Clouds for Daily Photo
Soft
Like cotton candy
The colour reminiscent
Of beaches
White and sandy
Blue skies filled
With soft fluffy clouds
Life chilled
Relaxation allowed
Now, all is
Fine and dandy

Quote a Week Tuesday (2016-07-26)
For this week’s quote of the week, I have chosen a reminder for us all: Enjoy!
“Practice like you’ve never won, perform like you’ve never lost”
Bernard F. Asuncion
Practice like you’ve never won,
In everything you do;
Success isn’t made overnight,
Let it be well done by you.
Perform like you’ve never lost,
Do all the best that you can;
No need for wasting time,
Show that you are the man.
Practice like you’ve never won,
Losing shall pull you down;
Exert extra effort to prevail,
Becoming talk of the town.
Perform like you’ve never lost,
Don’t be scared to make a mistake;
Learn lessons from failures
To taste the icing of the cake.
Discipline is all you need,
Days of negligence are gone;
Triumph tomorrow shall shine,
Practice like you’ve never won.
Bernard F. Asuncion

“I was never that kind of star. I was never cast because I was gorgeous” Helen Mirren
Happy Birthday to Dame Helen Mirren
The star of everything that matters
Stating this not just for the sake of flatters
The Queen, the Chief Inspector, a tart
Playing them all with very much smart
She is definitely not a prude
When prancing in the nude
Not afraid to speak her mind
Even if it meant to be a little unkind
A naughty word here and there
To make her point, if you weren’t clear
Pure perfection of talent and beauty
Always with the sense of duty
A rose by any other name
Let’s all hail to our Dame:
Happy 71st birthday!

Red for Mundane Monday
“I didn’t like mundane life” Jeanne Calment
Red Eyes
Glowing red hot streaks of light
Staring, still scared to lose my sight
Instincts kicking in: Fight or flight
Getting closer and closer
Movement slower and slower
Breathing lower and lower
Questions, filling my mind
What kind of monsters do I find
Will they be bad or will they be kind
“Well, guess there is only one way to find out”
She said out loud
And then, she opened the box…

Sunset,
On a rainy day
Setting,
Across the ocean bay
Creating,
A pleasant display
