‘Je suis Nice’

“The poet does not fear death, not because he believes in the fantasy of heroes, but because death constantly visits his thoughts and is thus an image of a serene dialogue” Salvatore Quasimodo

Treasure
Peace, love, happiness and all good things
Because
You’ll never know, what curveballs life may bring

Just Another Day in July for Daily Photo

“Do what we can, summer will have its flies.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Just Another Day in July for Daily Photo

Just-Another-Day-in-July-2

If you expected sunshine,
Sitting on a terrace
With a cool glass of wine
And feeling, just fine

Then,
I hate to disappoint
Dearie,
But it seems,
The odds
Are heavily
Against you

The weather gods
Decided their jobs
Was to make you sob

Like the true sociopaths
Bringing on their wrath
Even if you did not need a bath

But soaking wet
Soon you’ll be
If you think
The game is set
Maybe
It is time to flee

Or then

Just forget,
The bummer
After all
It is summer
And just
Another day
In July

Look Up for The Daily Post

“Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work” A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Reaching for the Sky

Watching
The skies
Wondering,
What,
Beyond the horizon
Lies

Rails in the Sky

Take a slow ride
Up, up in the sky
You know you want to
Go as high
As high as the sky
With the ride
The ride to the sky

But of course
And we do until
We are dropping!
But,
Coffee first!

People of all Sorts

helsinki-13

The lady with her dog
Was looking for a grog
The taxi had already gone
So she decided to sit on the log

The dude is a statue
He was quite the virtue
Now with a seagull
He seems a little dull

Get you fresh fish here,
Catch of today
On your plate won’t stay!”

Fresh boiled sausages
Made from reindeer
Don’t worry dear

Come and get some i-iice cream,
Cold and cooling
If you need the smoothing!”

Harbour Area

A slow boat to Sweden
Or a catamaran to Tallinn
If you are looking for Eden
Well, maybe
But you better be all in!
