In honour of Caturday, for all cats everywhere

“A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere” Groucho Marx

Caturday, 2016-01-16

When the black cat
Was crossing the street
She was chasing a rat
Trying to act discreet
Hiding behind a big hat
Awaiting her treat

The grounded bat
Knew he tasted sweet
Stood still on the mat
There was no time to greet
Only time, for combat

After a long while
Both standing still
Trying to act hostile
But without thrill
So instead of the usual
They decided in mutual

This tale’s end
Will the norm bend
Cat and mouse decided
To shake their paws delighted
The lesson of this tale?
Sometimes it’s good to fail

A snowy sunny day
In the land far far away
Up North, let us pray!
Children came out to play
Even adults came forth

After all

What else is there to say
Because yet another
Fabulous and sunny Friday
Has found its way

“Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still” Dorothea Lange

Favourite Photo Friday, 2015 Photo Breakdown (2016-01-15)

Those of you snapping pix, know this to be a tedious task, since to be honest, they are all favourites of the moments they were taken, why else would you have shot them in the first place, right? Trying to limit to just one or two photos is difficult for any post, but trying my best here from the several thousand photos shot and posted during 2015 😉

For this weeks Favourite Photo Friday posts, I have decided to walk through 2015 and choose a few of my most favourite ones during the coming weeks. Hope you enjoy the walk down memory lane of 2015 in photographs!

For this week’s breakdown, I have chosen snaps from London, Mallorca and Greece. Go and check out the related posts:

UK, London, The Natural History Museum

Greece, Athens, Acropolis, Travel to History

“We have chased away the clouds, the sky is all ‘rose.'” Francois Hollande

Fire in the Sky (Daily Photo 2016-01-14)

The sky
Supposedly blue
Now
The colour
Of a rosy hue
Fluffiest
Of clouds
Painting
A red shroud
The sun is
About to rise

“Wake up and smell the roses”

A Rose by any other Name

You delicate little thing
What joy for me you bring
You landed on my desk
Looking oh so statuesque
You were a gift for my birthday
Even though it was a workday
Thanks dear work mates
Bringing something great
To an otherwise dreary day
