“Everyday life is like programming, I guess.
If you love something you can put beauty into it”
Donald Knuth
Which Way?
Should I have stayed,
Or should I have gone?
Which way was up,
Which way did the flow go?
Did I make the right turn,
When I should have taken left?
Was it a mistake,
Or was the end justified by the means?
Much may be at stake
Or so it usually seems
Did I read the sign correctly,
Or maybe,
It was just elementary?

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb
Dudes a-standing
Proud of being green
As in front of this white house I am seen
I try not lean
Because I am the dude a-standing
Trying hard not onto the ground a-landing

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb
Group a-hanging
We are the tough crowd
Hanging together green and proud
We usually sing very loud
Sometimes even scaring the cows
But sometimes we just meow
Especially, if the sky turns to a cloud

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb
Dudes a-standing
Up high on my pedestal
I really try not to fall
But if you throw me a ball
I will down myself haul
And shoot a great goal
Faster than you can it call

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb
Ladies a-leaning
One lady a-leaning
Two ladies a-leaning
If I keep on going
This will turn into a song
Just bang the gong
And in a flash I will be gone…

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb
Ladies a-leaning
Ladies of Helsinki
Keep telling me
To put on a crown
And go down town
Soon the ugly frown
Will even make a clown
Smile:
You are now officially on file

“Do not cross the brook for water”
Finnish proverb
Dudes a-standing
With this seagull on my head
My wicked ideas I will spread
But if you promise to bring me bread
Another type of story will be told instead

“Let’s celebrate this planet on which we live!”
What on Earth!
In the deep of the forest
You’ll find something flawless:
Clear waters soaring
After the rains have stopped pouring
Lush green leaves
In the cool wind heave
Critters and crawlers
Maybe even hidden monsters
This earthly scene
Is nothing to be found in a magazine
So, let out your inner child
And step into to the great wild!

“Let’s celebrate this planet on which we live!”
What on Earth!
“I’m still standing,
After all this time:
Boy, did I put a frown
Onto the face of that ‘clown’
When he tried to cut me down!
But, here I am
And I don’t give a damn
Whether I am aesthetically pleasing
On to the eyes easy
Because after all the time
I will still be standing!”

“Let’s celebrate this planet on which we live!”
What on Earth!
In the muddy waters
You’ll find, some earthly squatters
It started with a little bean
Now, standing tall and green
They may not be very pretty
They may not be so clean
But this close to the city
It’s a miracle to be seen
