The finer side of life… with Trash (SL WEEK)

Trash day
Better hurry it up
The pick up
Will not wait
Bring your discarded
Into the front yard
Surely soon enough
They will disappear

Yellow Seat (Seat Sunday 2016-02-14)

In the bright yellow seat
A guaranteed smile as a treat
When you sit down
You will find an upside frown
Appearing on your face

Happy Valentine’s Day: Me and My Shadow

Celebrating Valentine’s Day!

“Just remember if we get caught, you’re deaf and I don’t speak English”

Me and My Shadow

It was nineteen eighty-five
When I hitched a ride
Ever since that time
We have been tied
Like sugar and spice
Abbott and Costello
And what have you
I am still quite amazed
And feeling totally graced
That someone would stare at my face
For thirty odd years straight
So thanks for all this time, sweetheart
Lets try to make it to the next part
And add another thirty to the cart
After all the most important thing
Which makes you want to sing
It’s good to have that one person
Who will support you without a reason
No matter how serious
Or delirious
Life gets
I will bet
You will still be the one
Who I can rely on
To go absolutely
And completely
Bonkers with
Ain’t that a hit!

Garfield 2

“Meow” means “woof” in cat.”—George Carlin (comedian)

An homage to the Lasagne Loving Cartoon Cat: Garfield (Caturday)

Everyday, eat lasagne
That can be most fun ‘ya
The cutest fat cat
Who really likes to chat
The orange tabby
With words of stabby
A fun loving creature
In a cartoon feature
Love ‘im, hate ‘im
You still can’t help to grin

“Never trust a smiling cat” Garfield

“You Don’t Need A Big One To Be Happy!”

Mini Cooper (Daily Photo)

Baby I can drive my car?
Guess I will be going far?
I’m not going to be a star
But I like playing a guitar
Oh and driving my car,
My Mini Cooper car!

Beep, beep, beep – Yeah!

“When it rains, it pours”

Rainy Suburbia (Daily Photo)

“Welcome to sunny suburbia!”
They said

“Stay a while, take a load off”
They said

“It’s pretty and white, the sun shining so bright!”
They said

“Bah Humbug!”
I said

Sounded more, like a tall tale
Or urban a legend, set to fail!

As the rain came pouring down
And not a single dry spot could be found
I felt like the sideshow clown
On my face, an permanent painted frown

“Oh, well, when in Rome…”
I thought

Sitting in my recliner
Cozy, lazy and bundled up
Sipping on my warm cider
I held up my cup
Saluted towards the window
For all the daring weirdos
Coming out from their hides
And venturing to cold outside

And I said:
“Cheers!”
