“Don’t make a spectacle of yourself”
Black and Pink
Vision so clear
I can not fear
If I ever lost them
To a whirlwind
Would I be sent
Like a second skin
Through thick and thin
As thick as thieves
My spectacles and me
As far as I can see

“Well, my favorite color I guess I would say yellow” Fran Drescher
Yellow
Not quite a rose
Still has its thorns
Gorgeous in its pose
A little red adorns
Not quite a flower
Still has the power
Each time to wow her

“To have my cake and eat it too?… hm… eat it!”
Chocolate Cake 
It’s just a cake
Nothing fake
Some sugar and spice
All the things nice
And do not forget
The best ingredient
What is it?
What else for a ‘holic
But dark chocolate

“You can be the moon and still be jealous of the stars” Gary Allan
Early Morning Sunrise with Crescent Moon, Daily Photo 2015-12-07, Part Three
The storms have finally passed
The moon its light trying to cast
The sun pushing its way with a blast
Daylight waving its flag in the mast
Oh how I wish this forever could last
But only for a passing moment
Then it’s all over way too fast
Darkness has covered the skies alas

“The moon puts on an elegant show, different every time in shape, colour and nuance” Arthur Smith
Pale Moonlight
Have you ever pranced around
In the pale moonlight?
Bare feet in the middle of the night?
The neighbours bringing to a fright?
With a big grin and out of smite?
Why?
Because, I always ask that from all my friends.

“The more violent the storm, the quicker it passes” Paulo Coelho
Calm Before the Storm, Daily Photo 2015-12-05, Part Two
The sun has almost set
Soon it is time to get
Indoors before getting wet
It will rain soon, I’ll bet
It is the moment of calm
Before the coming of the storm

“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky” Rabindranath Tagore
Calm Before the Storm, Daily Photo 2015-12-05, Part One
Painted red is the evening sky
Clouds gathering before the eye
Time standing almost still
Feeling anxious from the thrill
It is the moment of calm
Before the coming of the storm

“Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.
The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
No one ever said elves are nice.
Elves are bad.”
― Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies
Elves
“Tip tap tip tap tipe tipe tip tap”
The stars in the sky shining bright
No one knows where they tread
Dressed in white
Dressed in red
The Holiday Season is upon us
The Elves are all around us
Small or tall
They’re having a ball
Singing along
The holiday’s song
“Tip tap tip tap tipe tipe tip tap”
