Pool Waters

Under the scorching sun
Time for some poolside fun
Diving into the turquoise
Joining the local tortoises

Nightly Waters

After the sun has set
It’s time to get wet
Dipping into the dark waters
We can pretend to be sea otters

Monochromatic Waters

A nature’s monochromatic sketch
Close to the water’s edge
Rock and liquid merging
Becoming each others’ version

“Wanna go skinny dipping?”
She asked me
Shedding all her clothes
While into the icy pool she dove

Blue Waters

Cool, blue, inviting
Feeling myself sliding
Into the water’s embrace
Sensing an upside down frown
Forming on my face

Bright lights
Distorted colours
Forever night
Never duller
When life is
Filled with bliss
And everything
Painted with
Neon colours

On the Porch for Daily Photo

Leaves, leaves, leaves
They are gathering up in heaves
Giving us the grieves
Oh how I wish for a Jeeves
To rake up all these leaves!

It is more than just girl power
It’s to make our future brighter
Global efforts and awareness
Education and freedom, that’s what we’re after

We can be whatever we want
To mother, sister, daughter, aunt
Ability to change the world
We can thrive coz we’re not simple tableau vivant

‘I Am A Girl I Am Smart And I Am Strong I Can Do Anything’

Girls, Girls, Girls for International Day of the Girl Child

The world would be total shit
Without a little girl in it
No laughter, nor giggles
No mystery nor riddles

Doing all kinds of silly things
With her dog and tiny wings
Future wide and open
For them you are hoping

Joy and fortune
Without worry or torture
Today’s little girls
Tomorrow’s gems and pearls

Let them play
Let them stay
Little girls
A while longer

“Sunday evenings often feel like the weekend is over before it’s even begun”
Catherine McCormack

October’s Day for Daily Photo

Red, redder, reddest
That is the colour of the forest
So just stick your nose out of the door
And see what nature has in store
