“Books bring alluring colors to our mundane black and white world.”

Arches

What secrets can be found
When venturing underground
Behind all the arches
Hidden treasures and gardens?

Still Reigning: Queen Elizabeth II

Posted in Fandom

“I have in sincerity pledged myself to your service, as so many of you are pledged to mine. Throughout all my life and with all my heart I shall strive to be worthy of your trust” Queen Elizabeth II

Still Reigning: Queen Elizabeth II

qe-1

Who would have thought
Of being in the same job
For some sixty five years
– Surely worth some cheers

You’re part of the folk
Even cracked a few jokes
You got street smarts
And certainly won our hearts

Pink, purple or blue
To name but a few
The colours like your spirit
Would inspire many lyrics

Wishes for
Many more
Years of reign
Hear our hail:

Long Live the Queen!

You gotta love big, buff guys sportin’ pageboys and holding glowing globes. I mean, really. And you’ll find these stoic, Prince Valiant look-alikes standing guard in front of Helsinki’s Central Railway Station.

Monday: We meet again!

Posted in Daily Incidents

“So, Monday, we meet again!”

Monday: We meet again!

I knew you were trouble
As soon as I met you
Like the space telescope Hubble
Or a kid without shoes
I would be completely lost
If I didn’t have you

Yeah, what would a week be
Without us to curse thee
Because it can only get better
After a Mon-dee
