“Sunday is the golden clasp
that binds together the volume of the week.”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Snow Day in March
It was supposed to be a sunny day in spring
But as the clock struck with a loud ding
The snowflakes started to sing
Down, down it poured
The drains started to roar
My eyes started to sore
Was it tears or the snow fall?
Oh, March, why art thou such a bore!

“Sunday is the golden clasp
that binds together the volume of the week.”
― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Snow Day in March
Flakey snowflakes,
The earth did shake
But oh, what total fakes
When onto the ground they lay
For a while did they stay
But much to someone’s dismay
The flakey flakes
Slowly faded away

“I don’t mind going back to daylight saving time.
With inflation, the hour will be the only thing I’ve saved all year”
Victor Borge
Daylight Savings
Lost an hour
Feeling sour
Without power
Like a flower
Without petals
A tangy metal
Taste in my mouth
Things going south
All because of daylight savings
There are no other cravings
Than sleep one more hour

“Christmas is a season not only of rejoicing but of reflection”
Winston Churchill
Reflections
Reflections on the walls
Reflections on the windows
The sunsets and sunrises
Reflected on each surface

“A dream doesn’t become reality through magic;
it takes sweat, determination and hard work”
Colin Powell
Magic
Like a flick
Of the light switch
Like scratching
A really bad itch
I had started writing
Once more
Just like that
Just like magic
I found my muse
And I did it

“Even if it turns out that time travel is impossible,
it is important that we understand why it is impossible”
Stephen Hawking
Seconds
Heart beating
Time is running out
Only a few seconds left
For the ultimate request
Using a different route
Feels like cheating
Finally reaching
My own hideout
No time for rest
Only doing my best
No time for tryout
Parameter breaching
Safely in my blue box
Punching the clock
Time starts moving
Seconds removing
Going backwards
Against standards
They said
It couldn’t be done
But did I bet
And know I am gone
Back in time
Trying to find
…My future

“Style is a reflection of your attitude and your personality”
Shawn Ashmore
Reflections
Through the looking glass
Reflections from present and past
Mystified images mirrored
In your mind’s eye forever

“Sleepy Kitty
Happy Kitty
Purr, purr, purr”
Sleepy Kitty
Happy with my kitty
So I wrote this little ditty
Why don’t you sing along
To the tune of this familiar song
Soft kitty, warm kitty
Purring on my lap
Sleepy kitty, happy kitty
Why don’t I too take a nap
My little ball of fur
Listening to you purr
Life is kind of a blur
But this is how I prefer

“The world is a book,
and those who do not travel
read only a page”
Saint Augustine
Verbania, Italy
Narrow are the streets
So be quick on your feet
Navigating in too deep
May leave you lost
Oh, and with what cost!
(Cheap ;))
