Shadow and Light (two)

“Keep your face to the sunshine
and you cannot see a shadow”
Helen Keller

Shadow and Light

Shadow and light
Presented
In black and white
Early morning sunrise
In the morning skies
Competing with
The early bird in flight

Before I go

“I believe that if life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade…
And try to find somebody whose life has given them vodka, and have a party”
Ron White

Before I go

I promised myself to take it slow
So just one more drink before I go
Boy, did that line have me sold
In this oldest of stories ever told

Now before you start with your hate and scold
And all things out of proportion blow
Let my simple story before you unfold

It had been, a damned hard week
On the first day, the future looked at best bleak
I felt nauseous, I felt weak
Not knowing where to look or what to seek

Monday, Tuesday, they were slow
Wednesday, I got a little bold
Thursday hit, also the proverbial fan’s shit
Finally Friday, lucky Friday
This was ultimately my day!

Things got done
Now it was time for some fun
So before I got to go
I just yelled ‘Hello!’

What else did you expect?
No more projects
No more work
(That lousy jerk!)
Only a time to hit the road
And let the fun times start to flow

Oh, and just in case you wondered,
And called out my number:
It was just a weekender
Spent on this bender

All work and no fun
Pardon the pun
Would start all over again
When dreaded Monday begins

“I don’t see myself in an ivory tower”
Jeff Buckley

Two Towers

Peekaboo
I see a yellow you
A mighty tower
Like a big flower
Slightly askew,
Against the sky ever so blue

“I don’t see myself in an ivory tower”
Jeff Buckley

Two Towers

The white shaded castle
Stands tall and graceful
On the busiest of streets
Inside you will find a treat
A hidden suite
With offers of sweet
Definitely
Something about to tweet

Even aliens use a mobile phone
When they arrive to this quaint little town
At least according to the drawn image
As they are blending in with the culture of Finnish

A moose on wheels?
Or possibly with high heels?
You may not know it
But now you will be shown it
Because in Finland;
The moos do as they feel

A designer lamppost
Is almost
The top most
So what better to toast
Than this fine lamppost
