with its bitin’, whinin’ wind,
and all the land will be mantled with snow”

Winter Views 

“Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight,
We’re happy tonight,
Walking in a winter wonderland.”

Hay,
Tall grass
Alas
In the snow
Does grow

Under the cool winter breeze
Safeguarded under the trees
The two wheelers
For the true believers
Of “never stop cycling”

Snow as far as eyes can see
Still, the creek running wild and free
So let the cold wind continue blowing
Water freely flowing
There is no slowing

Freaky for Mundane Monday (one)

Posted in Mundane Monday : Photography /Poetry /Humour

“I now find magic in the mundane.
I’m also more creative –
better able to look beyond the obvious and
come up with new story angles.”
Deborah Norville

Freaky for Mundane Monday 

eerie-1

Eerie
Totally eerie
Surroundings quite blurry
In the small village
So don’t set on pillage
And acting the dare-y
There may be a spillage
Of something scary
In the tiniest of villages

Freaky for Mundane Monday 

village-1

A village
Revealed by the rising sun
A tiny little village, pardon the pun
Where life lived in slow motion
None daring to raise any commotion
Not even the sound of a locomotion

Riding through the centre
Without much notion
Happy may they be
As far as you and I can see
But be careful there not to flee
Or you may end up crazy

November Sky for Daily Photo (two)

Posted in Daily Photo: Photography, Poetry and Humour

“Wind warns November’s done with.
The blown leaves make bat-shapes,
Web-winged and furious.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Collected Poems

November Sky 

Clouds are breaking
The storm is fading
The shiny bright light
Has won the fight!
