Feeling Nostalgic for the Daily Post

“It is strange how we hold on to the pieces of the past while we wait for our futures.”
― Ally Condie, Matched

Pirates

“Shiver me timbers
For I am getting sober
Pass another bottle
And we’ll go full throttle!”

Pirates

“Aargh!
Pirates we’ll be
Nothing will stop us you see!
We are tough and loud
Even Mom would be proud
Our daily fishing now is done
It’s time to drink, dance and have some fun!”

Nostalgia

Ah, Nostalgia
That sense of euphoria
Would even impress Gloria
When you are remembering
The “good old days”…

Happy Cinnamon Roll Day!

Posted in Celebration: National Cinnamon Roll Day (Finland) 4th of October
A Finnish delicacy named “korvapuusti” (“A slap on the ear”); a sweet bun or roll

“We are in the stickiest situation since sticky the stick insect got stuck on a sticky bun”
Rowan Atkinson

Happy Cinnamon Roll Day!

korvapuusti-1

Cinnamon,
Rhymes with bon-bon
In a form of a bun
It’s even more fun
Let you teeth sink in
It’s as good as sin
And
It helps if you’re a Finn!

World Animal Day 4th of October

Celebrating World Animal Day

“The greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated” Mahatma Gandhi

World Animal Day, 4th of October

What would the world be
Without a cat, elephant or a bee
As far as the eye can see
Birds sitting in the trees

Join in and celebrate
All creatures great and small
They have given us much more
Than anyone can elaborate

Full Moon for Daily Photo

“And Fall, with her yeller harvest moon and the hills growin’ brown and golden under a sinkin’ sun” Roy Bean

Distant Moon

full-moon-5

Spinning out from orbit
Like a sugar rush tripping hobbit
If you think about it
It may sound quite horrid
You may even feel worried
But, before you vomit
Another comet
May fill the empty space
And be a much nicer place!

Copper Moon

full-moon-1

The copper shaded moon
Has reached its full bloom
Rusty and round
Lighting
The night ground
If you were looking for treasure
To be a person of leisure
Then this is
The wrong rainbow!

White Moon

Shining brightly
Tonight oh so whitely
Like a Christmas song
Banging the gong
The full moon
Came out at noon

“Are you really living life or are you just paying bills until you die?”

Quote a Week Tuesday: 2016-10-03

For this week’s quote, I have chosen a guideline, which I myself am trying to adapt to living by (very, very slowly I might add!). But then again, you only live once, or maybe twice or even more times, depending on your beliefs or wishes of course 😉

“Don’t stress yourself out over things you can’t control or change”

Mundane Monday: Grey 2

Posted in Mundane Monday #79

“There’s something that’s really fun about the challenge of making the mundane funny, too, I think”
Jim Gaffigan

Grey

Grey may be mundane
Or the colour of a great dane
But it has no fame
And sometimes gets the blame
