Triptych 

Not saving any ink
Painted pink
The house stands tall
Winter, Spring, Summer and fall
In the harbour
From port to starboard

Jaguar for Mundane Monday

Posted in Mundane Monday #72
Photography /Poetry /Humour

“I want a Jaguar, Jaguar, a Jaguar car” Gun Roswell

Jaguar for Mundane Monday

Shiny bright objects
On the hood of the car
Not satisfied admiring from afar
Closing in with careful steps

Ornaments of gorgeous animals
Mouths agape like howling cannibals
A feline of sorts
Put on this car of sports

A Jaguar,
Can go quite far
But how about,
This old car?

Got my prize
In a pocket size
A snap for this post
Now the image a ghost

Driving in my Fiesta
I really need a siesta
But in my mind
A tune of a different kind

“I want a Jaguar, Jaguar, a Jaguar car”

Happy Monday All; It’s good to be back!

“When in Finland, sit like the Finns do”

Hurry, reserve that Seat!

“Hurry, hurry!
Someone will steal
That cool seat
And we’ll be left standing
On our two feet!”

Take a Seat in Suomenlinna for Seat Sunday

“When in Finland, sit like the Finns do”

Good Seats come in Threes!

They say
Good things
Don’t grow on trees
But some things
Come in threes
And make great seats

Take a Seat in Suomenlinna for Seat Sunday

“When in Finland, sit like the Finns do”

Green Seat

A little lone seat
Painted in green
Out here in the heat
Maybe old fashioned
And a little compassion
Add some graffiti
And it’ll turn out neat!

“You know, from my point of view, I’m the luckiest cat on the planet” Hugh Hefner

For Caturday

Cats, cats, cats
I see a lots of cats
Cats over there
And cats over here
Even more cats
They are everywhere

Oh, look at the pretty cat
In the window there
What window, where?
Over there, over here
Even more cats
They are everywhere

Coffee in the work place
Or coffee on the beach
Where ever you stay
Practice what you preach:

Drink Coffee
When ever
Where ever
Always, Coffee

On the Rocks for Mundane Monday

“Creativity is piercing the mundane to find the marvelous.”
Bill Moyers

On the Rocks for Mundane Monday

A swirl in the sky
Clouds are alive
Sunshine and blue skies
Feeling alive
But
The boat just left
Me
On these rocks
Maybe try
If I float?
