“I also like to garden. I grow things, vegetables, flowers…
I particularly like orchids. I raise orchids.”

Orchids for Daily Photo

Roses are red
Violets are blue…

But then again
It’s not always so zen
An Orchids’ colour may vary
So don’t get too scary
This time it was pink
As was the kitchen sink

“Say what?”

“Don’t blame me, It had to rhyme
Should I stop?”

“OK, so all is fine!”

“Then I’ll pop…
out that is 😉 “

Colours and Candy for Mundane Monday

"Life tends to be an accumulation of a lot of mundane decisions, 
which often gets ignored"
David Byrne

Colours

A work of art?
Or something smart?
A splash of colour
Will leave you wonder
What is beyond there?
A work of art
Or something,
Even more smart?

Candy

A bowl filled with candy
Would cheer up even Mandy
Keep it handy
And you’ll never go cranky!

Fish and Blueberry Pie Sunday for Daily Photo

"Poetry is truth in its Sunday clothes"
Joseph Roux

Fish

fish-sunday-1

All this for a feast
To say the least!
So much to eat
Some salty, some sweet
To top it all
Fish served in a bowl
Before you know it
You’re off your feet
Lying on the couch
With a tummy ouch
But a fair price to pay
For such a great meal
On this lovely Sunday!

September Pink for Daily Photo

"By all these lovely tokens September days are here,
With summer's best of weather And autumn's best of cheer."
Helen Hunt Jackson

September Pink for Daily Photo

A sunny reminder
Of the days of summer
But then we found out
It was actually September
Oh, what a bummer!

Oh well, any ways,
As long as there is no snow
And the winds won’t blow
We won’t have a cow!

“Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.”

Guard duty

Hired gun
With my phaser on stun
Get the pun?
Alert and ready
On my four legs steady
Looking around
Pouncing, on every sound
I am on
Guard duty

Can’t be bothered

Can’t be bothered
Laying low, like an otter
Just had me some water
Because outside is much hotter
And I really don’t like

What?

What’s ya looking at?
Don’t ya believe I’m a cat?
Maybe I just ate a rat
And now, filled, laying flat

Sometimes, I wear a hat
To feel like an aristocrat
I only drink milk nonfat
In a tall glass, placed on a mat

Paging Mr Diesel

Maybe I’m a frog
Or just a regular dog
Maybe,
There is a little cat in me too
So without further ado
Put on your dentures
Follow my adventures
And you’ll find out
What I really do?
Call me Mr Diesel,
And hear me roar!

"I stare at myself in the mirror and I think,
'Wow, I'm really great-looking.'...
I think I'm the greatest, anyway"
Iggy Pop

Selfies in the Mirror for The Daily Post

I am the prettiest of them all
At least after too much alcohol
Trying to stand here very tall
Realizing I really need a total overhaul
