“Morning comes whether you set the alarm or not.” Ursula K. Le Guin
Early Morning on a Saturday
Too early
Airport calling
Surely
You wouldn’t want to
Miss the flight
It took so long
And one
Sleepless night
To get there
Where ever
You now wanted
To go
Breathe in
Breathe out
Let the morning air
Cool and thin
Hitting your skin
Clear all doubt
For soon
Sea and sun
Will replace
The mundane
And it’s not even
A Monday!
Get the pun?

“Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution” Ansel Adams
Monolith
Tall, dark and mysterious
Standing by itself, all serious
Staring at it, getting nervous
Or maybe just a little delirious

“If you wish to travel far and fast, travel light. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness and fears” Cesare Pavese
Esplanade
Down the esplanade
We like to parade
With a gentle sway
For a while in the cafes stay
Until summer will fade
And to indoors we will trade

Aleksanterinkatu
The fearless leader from Russia
Made such a fuss-ia
Wanted a statue
And a street no less
As a name sake
Oh, we are no fools
And know he was a fake
He had his dues
But I must confess
The names sound kinda cool!

“I have always been caught by the pull of the unremarkable, by the easily missed, infinitely nourishing beauty of the mundane.”
― Tana French, Broken Harbor
Temple of Blue
Don’t just stand there and stare
Enter, if you dare
We will not give you a scare
(Much anyway 😉 )

“I don’t generally like running.
I believe in training by rising gently up
and down from the bench”
Satchel Paige
A Bench to Sit on
Then I saw it
The bench, made of stone
When I tried to sit
I felt it to my bones
Too hard for a fit!

“There’s never one sunrise the same or one sunset the same.”
Carlos Santana
Sunset on Saturday
A February Saturday
Opened up a gallery
Of a painted nature display
The setting sun
A web of colours spun
Across the horizon

“Clouds suit my mood just fine” Marie Lu, Champion
Blue
On the way to Peru
Or possibly Katmandu
Onto a side track we flew
Soon enough, in a locale new
With a cloudy blue hue
And a gorgeous mountain view

“Remember, as far as everyone knows, we are a nice, normal family!”
All in the Family
Can’t live with them
Can’t live with them
That is really all that can be said
Rather than whining, I wrote this ode instead
I would like to put them in a box
And take them out when ever needed
But there is a warning to be headed
They really are quite crazy
Maybe a little hazy
And cunning like the fox
The may not be my kind of crazy
But they are still family
Even though scattered all over
Like a five leaf clover
I still have the luxury
Maybe even compulsory
To keep in touch with them
Thank Goodness for such gems
As Instagram and Facebook
Now we are all hooked
So without resistance
Lets enjoy the distance
No just kidding
I love you guys!

“Love myself I do”
A Heart
A heart for the humanity
A heart for the world
A heart for the animals
A heart for the hurt
A heart for the lucky ones
A heart for the charmed
A heart for my dear one
You are lots of fun
With your phasers on stun
Got me to unarm
A heart for myself
Heck, I just wanted to be heard
Good Lord, what a nerd!
A heart for all of you
And now, you know what to do
Have a happy Wednesday
Have a happy Friends Day
Hell, even have a happy Valentine’s Day!
