betty-quote

Absolutely fabulous
Absolutely gorgeous
Absolutely hilarious
Absolutely flawless

Laughter is eternal
Completely universal
If I could not laugh
I would be terminal

Thanks for everything so far Ms. Betty
Throwing your way some confetti
What ever more you can deliver
I am totally ready!
Many happy returns,
Betty!

Happy Birthday to Nichelle Nichols

From science fiction
To science fact
From Lady Actress
To Lady Astronaut

A many of myths
You have broken
A multitude of gifts
And truly outspoken

An eternal beauty
With a sense of duty
A voice like an angel
With an attitude of the devil 😉

Uhura, Nichelle
We’re so very glad
Onto our screens you fell
Without you we’d be sad

This might sound a cliche
Live Long and Prosper!

Hyvää Syntymäpäivää Mamma!

Posted in Celebration: Photography, Poetry and Humour (Finnish version)

“Taivaalla lentää… Teräs Mamma!”

Hyvää Syntymäpäivää Mamma!

Teräs Mamma
Super Muori
Ei ehkä niin nuori
Perunat kuitenkin kuori
Ja laittoi sukat suoriks
Hiukset kampas’
Paimensi jopa lampaat
Pesi hampaat

“Onhan tänään päivä suuri
Vaikka heräsinkin juuri
Ja vastasin luuriin
Matkalla kauppaan Tuuriin”

Eipä kummoinen riimi
Eipä tämä runoilija ole kovin fiini
Joten tähän lopuksi
Ennen kuin pitää laittaa hopuksi

“Erinomaista synttäriä sulle Mamma!”

Happy Birthday to Our Mom!

Posted in Celebration: Photography, Poetry and Humour

“My mother is a walking miracle”
Leonardo DiCaprio

Happy Birthday to Our Mom!

A true super hero
A non-caped crusader
A mom made of steel
She’ll make you eat oatmeal
Tell you how she feels
Ask you, what is the big deal
The mom of moms
Enjoys the occasional rum
Is a lot of fun
And always has a phaser on stun

With the motto
“Always be prepared for the worst
But expect the best”
That is why she plays the Lotto
Just like the rest

So this was not a great rhyme
But at the bell’s chime
We all get together to wish you:
A Very Happy Birthday Mom!

Sankta Lucia

Posted in Celebration National Day

“Night walks with a heavy step
Round yard and hearth,
As the sun departs from earth,
Shadows are brooding.
There in our dark house,
Walking with lit candles,
Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia”

lucia-1899

Sankta Lucia

The bearer of light
For the future to shine bright
With all her might
Like the shining white knight
Her sword will smite
All the anger and spite
The world to rewrite
Without war or fight
Sankta Lucia

Saara, Saara, Saara Aalto
Singing in bass or alto
From the country of reindeer
With the voice of an angel
You won our hearts
You killed in the charts
You are a true master
Of your talent and art!

The 3rd Advent (two)

Posted in Holiday Season:Tale, Poetry, Photography, Humour

“Maybe Christmas, the Grinch thought,
doesn’t come from a store”
Dr. Seuss

The 3rd Advent

…In the end
After some time spent
The agreement said

“You can have three days off
Provided, they are on a weekend
No more time to spend
On any celebration
Or there will be hell to bend!”

So now, if you listen closely
The celebration still goes on, but quietly
Under the bridges and behind closed doors
Some say, they even roast s’mores

Guess the lesson learnt
Is: do not get burnt
But celebrate you can
If you don’t give damn
Even if shit hits the fan!

“Maybe Christmas, the Grinch thought,
doesn’t come from a store”
Dr. Seuss

The 3rd Advent

At the tone of the bell’s ding
The celebrations are about to begin
Even the grumpiest of them all begins to sing
All the crowd begins to swing

Nothing will stop the celebration
So come along, bring your dalmatian
Let’s spread the cheer across the nation
So hop on the train before it leaves the station

But hold on to your horses
Says the person cautious
Before we can actually endorse this
We need to talk to our bosses
