Anchors Aweigh!
“Anchors Aweigh, my boys, Anchors Aweigh.
Farewell to college joys, we sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay.
Through our last night on shore, drink to the foam,
Until we meet once more. Here’s wishing you a happy voyage home”
Traditional navy song

Industrial
An industrial building
Perfect,
Without the gilding
Solid rock
The only one
Of its kind
In this block

Come on Knock on Our Door!
“Come and knock on our door… (Come and knock on our door)
We’ve been waiting for you…. (We’ve been waiting for you)
Where the kisses are hers and hers and his,
Three’s company too.”
Three’s Company theme song

Court Yard
A rocky road
Into the court yard flowed

Thirsty
A drinking well
Today’s biggest sell
The passersby do tell
Or even broadcast it
On your cell!
Quench your thirst
The keeper reimburse
But first:
Wash your hands!

The Yellow House
The old yellow house
Too big for a mouse
But maybe a fit
For you and your spouse

Cafe
Picking up a tray
For a while
Planning to stay
In this cozy
Family style cafe

Triptych
Not saving any ink
Painted pink
The house stands tall
Winter, Spring, Summer and fall
In the harbour
From port to starboard

Quote a Week Tuesday: 2016-03-14
I have often been teased about my totally “empty desk” at work and when this quote caught my eye today, I could not help laughing out loud, and for quite a while I might add 😉 Well, if the shoe fits…
“If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?” Albert Einstein

“I want a Jaguar, Jaguar, a Jaguar car” Gun Roswell
Jaguar for Mundane Monday
Shiny bright objects
On the hood of the car
Not satisfied admiring from afar
Closing in with careful steps
Ornaments of gorgeous animals
Mouths agape like howling cannibals
A feline of sorts
Put on this car of sports
A Jaguar,
Can go quite far
But how about,
This old car?
Got my prize
In a pocket size
A snap for this post
Now the image a ghost
Driving in my Fiesta
I really need a siesta
But in my mind
A tune of a different kind
“I want a Jaguar, Jaguar, a Jaguar car”
Happy Monday All; It’s good to be back!
